Fig. 4. Replication defects delocalize and increase Dup levels in follicle cells. (A,B) Immunolabeling for Orc2 (red) indicates that it is localized to amplification foci in wild-type (A) and Mcm6K1214 mutant (B) early-stage 10B follicle cell nuclei (TOTO-3, blue). (C-H) Immunolabeling for Dup (red). Dup is localized to chorion foci in wild-type stage 10B follicle cells (C), whereas in Mcm6K1214 (D) Dup protein is largely dispersed and more abundant, although some nuclei had detectable concentrations of Dup protein at chorion loci (arrow). Because late-stage 10B follicle cells are shown in C and D, one focus of Dup staining at the chorion locus on the third chromosome locus predominates. The bright blue foci are heterochromatin. (E-H) Dup localization and abundance are altered in the other amplification mutant strains mus101K451 (E), chiffon0233 (F), Orc2fs293 (G) and dupPA77 (H). Images are composites of confocal sections. Scale bar, 5 µm.
