Figure 6.

Quantitative analysis of triadic junctions. (A) T tubule of a toadfish swim bladder (Franzini-Armstrong and Nunzi, 1983). The quantitative analysis is not possible, as the couplon or couplons are only partially imaged. (B) A T tubule from toadfish, shown as one of the first examples of the canonical structure (Block et al., 1988). (C) Successful idealization of B. (D) Junction in a stac3−/− zebrafish embryo rescued by expression of stac3 (Linsley et al., 2017). (E) Alignments using grids with slightly different rotation angles to segments of the tubule, consistent with the presence of small couplons separated by nonjunctional T tubule. (F) Idealization of the particles in D.
