Fig. S5 Reduced proliferation in the tectum opticum of apc mutants. (A–C) At 30 hpf, confocal analysis identified fewer PH3+ mitotic cells in the apc mutant OT. (B) as compared to wild-types (A). (C) The reduction of PH3+ cell numbers was augmented during further development. (D, E) Reduction of proliferation in the mutant OT is corroborated by the absence of pcna labeling from the mutant OT midline (arrowhead; n = 5). Of note is enhanced ectopic expression of pcna in the mutant cerebellum (arrows). Statistics: two-tailed Student′s t-test, *p < 0.01. Error bars represent SEM. ce, cerebellum; MHB, mid–hindbrain boundary; ot, optic tectum; vm, ventral midbrain. Scale bar 100 μm.
