Tdrd6a Stimulates Buc-eGFP Mobility In Vivo

(A) FRAP recovery curves of Buc-eGFP in tdrd6a heterozygous or mutant Balbiani bodies. Fluorescence intensity is the calculated fraction of the pre-bleach intensity and plotted with a 95% confidence interval.

(B) Tdrd6a IPs probed for the indicated proteins by western blot. Buc^p106 = buc loss-of-function allele. Note that Buc-eGFP is typically very hard to detect in total lysates.

(C) Localization of Buc-RtoK-eGFP in the buc^+/− and buc^−/− background. Arrow indicates Bb, arrowheads indicate Gp (buc^+/−) or where Gp should be (buc^−/−). Scale bars for oocyte and 1dpf, 10 μm. Scale bar for 4-cell, 100 μm. n = nucleus.

(D) Overview of buc^−/− ovary (whole mount) positive for Buc-RtoK-eGFP. Zooms 1 and 2 are examples of stage-I oocytes ø < ∼30 μm, containing small Buc-RtoK-positive granules (arrowheads). These granules are never detected in stage-Ib oocytes, where Buc-RtoK is diffusely cytoplasmic. Scale bar, 10 μm, n = nucleus.

(E) Quantification of progeny viability at 1 dpf spawned by mothers with background as indicated, crossed with wt males.

(F) Model of Buc-containing granules, with or without Tdrd6a. Arrows indicate movement in and out of the structure or mobility within the structure itself.
