Immunofluorescent studies were performed using standard procedures (König and Shcherbata, 2013). Primary antibodies used were: guinea pig anti-Tj (1:10 000; a kind gift from Dorothea Godt, University of Toronto, Canada), rabbit anti-Vasa (1:5000; a gift from Herbert Jäckle, MPI-bpc, Göttingen), mouse anti-Engrailed (1:20; Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank, DSHB), mouse anti-Fas3 (1:20; DSHB), rat anti-DE-Cadherin (1:20; DSHB), rabbit anti-mCherry (1:200; Abcam), and mouse anti-Flag (1:500; Sigma Aldrich). The following secondary antibodies were used: goat anti-guinea pig Alexa 647 (1:500; Life Technologies, A-21450), goat anti-mouse Alexa 488 (1:500; Molecular Probes) and goat anti-rabbit Alexa 568 (1:500; Molecular Probes). DAPI (Sigma) was used to stain the nuclei. Samples were imaged using Zeiss LSM 700. ImageJ and CorelDrawX8 were used to make Figures.

Larvae were dissected in cold phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and fixed in 4% formaldehyde in PBS for 30 min at room temperature. Larvae were then washed three times for 20 min with PBT and blocked in 2% normal donkey serum in PBT for 30 min. We incubated the tissue overnight at 4° in a primary antibody solution containing mouse anti-Engrailed (Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank 4D9, 1:40) diluted in 2% normal donkey serum in PBT. After washing three times for 20 min in PBT, larvae were incubated in the dark with goat anti-mouse Alexa 568 (Invitrogen, 1:200) and TRICT-Phalloidin (Sigma, 1:200) diluted in 2% normal donkey serum in PBT overnight at 4°. Larvae were rinsed with PBT, and ovaries were mounted on a poly-l-lysine-coated coverslip using Fluoromount-G (SouthernBiotech).

Immunofluorescence Staining of Drosophila Wing Discs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Discs were dissected from wandering third instar larvae and immunofluorescence staining was carried out as previously described [33 (link)]. Briefly, larvae are dissected in cold PBS (pH7.4) and fixed in 4% formaldehyde in PBS for 15 minutes. Samples were then permeabilized in PBS + 0.1% Triton X-100 and blocked in 5% normal horse serum. Primary antibodies in 5% normal horse serum were incubated overnight at 4°C or 2 hours at RT. Primary antibodies used for the immunostainings were mouse or rabbit α-V5 (Life Technology), rabbit anti-pMad (1:200) (Cell Signaling), rabbit α-Spalt major (1:100), anti-hedgehog (1:40), and chicken α-lacZ (1:100). Mouse anti-patched (DSHB), mouse anti-engrailed (DSHB), rat anti-Ci 2A1 (DSHB) were obtained from Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank (DSHB), University of Iowa, Department of Biological Sciences. Fluorophore conjugated secondary antibodies were from Jackson Immunoresearch. Confocal images were collected as single frames on a Zeiss LSM 780 confocal microscope. MG132 (100 μM; Calbiochem) in M3 medium (Sigma) was used to treat wing discs for up to 6 hours before immunostaining.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
