The mys-deficiency impaired epithelialization of somitic cells. (A–D) Confocal images of embryos stained with the anti-γ-Tubulin antibody (red) and Phalloidin (green). Dorsal views of a wild type embryo (A, C) and an ATG-MO injected embryo (B, D) at 13 hpf (the 6-somite stage) (A, B) or at 16 hpf (the 14-somite stage) (C, D). Asterisks indicate the positions of the somite boundaries. In wild type, somitic cells adjacent to the boundaries show a columnar shape and apical localization of the centrosomes. In the ATG-MO injected embryo, the somitic cells do not show the columnar shape and the centrosomes are distributed randomly in the cytoplasm.
