Reduction of Dm eIF5A function affects Dia formin levels. (A,B) Confocal images of a representative stage 13 en-GAL4>UAS-GFP; UAS-iReIF5A (en>GFP>iReIF5A) embryo stained with anti-Dia. A lateral view of the epidermis is shown. Anterior it to the left, dorsal is up. (A) Overlay of the en-GAL4 positive bands, identified by GFP expression, and Dia localization. (B) Image of the anti-Dia staining in which yellow lines represent the limits of the en-GAL4 positive bands. Decreased Dia levels are observed in cells with reduced eIF5A function (GFP marked cells) when compared to nearby non-GFP wild-type cells. Scale bar: 25 µm. (C) Quantification of the anti-Dia signal intensity (fluorescence intensity) in eIF5A mutant cells (GFP) with respect to control cells (Non-GFP). Data are represented as mean ± SD. Two-tailed student’s t-test analysis: *p < 0.05.
