Fig. 6 Atoh7 Loss of Function and Notch Activation Can Rescue Late Cell Fates in mok^s309

(A–D) Compared to wild-type (A), mok mutants (B) have an excess of RGCs and few bipolar cells, labeled by PKCα immunoreactivity. lak (atoh7) mutants fail to generate RGCs and overproduce bipolar neurons (C). lak/mok double mutants have rescued bipolar cell production.

(E–H) Heat-shocked induction of an activated form of Notch receptor NICD at 32 hpf drives progenitors toward a Müller glia fate (GS positive) in both wild-type (G) and mok^s309 retinas (H). The presence of the transgenes (hsp:Gal4, UAS:NICD) has no effect on Müller glia differentiation in the absence of heat shock (E and F).
