Fig. 8. Localisation of Crb in sdtK85 mutant adult photoreceptor cells upon Sdt-encoding transgene expression. Optical cross-sections of adult Drosophila eyes stained with anti-Sdt-PDZ (red) and anti-Crb (green). Phalloidin highlights the F-actin-rich rhabdomeres (blue). (A) In sdtK85-mutant eyes, which develop rhabdomeres with morphological defects, no Sdt (A) or Crb (A') was detected. (B) Sdt-B2 localises at the stalk membrane when expressed in sdtK85-mutant PRCs (B) and restores localisation of Crb at the stalk membrane (B'). (C) Sdt-
N expressed in sdtK85 mutant PRCs is spread throughout the cells and is only occasionally slightly enriched near the stalk membrane (C), where it then colocalises with Crb (C', arrows). (D) Sdt-
SH3 localises at the rhabdomere base when expressed in sdtK85 mutant PRCs (D), and no Crb is detected (D').
