Fig. 2. Defects in the surface organization of laminin and dystroglycan in dy^2J muscle. Confocal images of teased dy^2J dystrophic muscle fibers (b-e: b, merged image; c, laminin- ${alpha}$ 2-G; d, ${alpha}$ -dystroglycan). A wild-type control fibril (merged image) is shown in a. (e) A deconvoluted widefield cross-sectional view of dystrophic basement membrane zone (dystroglycan, red; laminin, green; merge, yellow). Note extensive (but not complete) effacement of rectilinear distributions for surface-distributed basement membrane, receptor and cytoskeletal components. Bars, 2 µm in e.
