Furrow F-actin contractions associated with germ plasm RNPs depend on calcium, Calmodulin and myosin. (A-L) z-projections from early and late furrows (second and first furrows at 60?mpf, respectively). (A?-L?) Lateral views showing F-actin contractions and RNPs. Control treated embryos exhibit F-actin indentations (A,A?, 5/7) and subsequent RNP distal enrichment (B,B?, 4/5). nebel mutants and 2-APB-treated wild-type embryos exhibit reduced F-actin contractions (C,C?, 2/10) and failed distal RNP enrichment (D,D?, 3/10). (E-J) Various inhibitors result in reduced F-actin indentations and RNP distal enrichment: IP3 receptor inhibitor 2-APB (E-F?, 1/5, 0/4); Calmodulin inhibitor W7 (G-H?, 0/4, 0/4); myosin inhibitor blebbistatin (I-J?, 2/5, 2/7). Phalloidin-treated embryos exhibit F-actin indentations (K,K?, 5/8) but late furrows exhibit incomplete RNP distal enrichment (L,L?, 0/14). Insets (A?,C?,E?,G?,I?,K?) are magnifications of the boxed regions. Brackets (B?,D?,F?,H?,J?,L?) highlight regions of RNP distribution. Scale bar: 10??m in A for A-L. |
