Absence of CycG affects p53 biosensor response to IR-stress in salivary glands. p53R-GFPnls reporter activity was analysed in larval salivary glands from either control, cycG HR7 or cycG eoC mutants irradiated with 40 Gy. (a) IR-stress results in p53 activation and subsequent expression of nuclear GFP from the p53 biosensor in the control, however to a much lower degree in cycG mutant glands. Size bar represents 100 μm in all panels. (b) Nuclear intensity of GFP signals was recorded using ImageJ by measuring individual nuclei (30–40 per gland; 6–8 glands per genotype). In both cycG mutant alleles nuclear GFP staining is reduced to about one-third of the value measured in the wild type. Significance was tested by ANOVA two-tailed Tukey-Kramer approach (***p < 0.001; ns, not significant).
