Embryos where dechorionated in bleach and fixed in a 1:1 mixture of heptane and 40% formaldehyde for 9 min. Embryos were then stuck to tape, manually devetillinized in PBS and transferred to eppendorf tubes. Staining to quantify maternal KD and for SIM were carried out in the same way: embryos were blocked in 1% BSA for 1 h, incubated with primary antibodies overnight at 4C, washed in PBS-Triton-X 0.1%, incubated with secondary antibodies for 2 h at room temperature, washed in PBS-Triton-X and mounted in Vectashield mounting medium. Primary antibodies were: 1:100 rat anti-DCAT-1 [Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank (DHSB)], 1:10 mouse anti-NECD (C458-2H, DSHB) and 1:10 rat anti-DCAD2 (DCAD2, DSHB). Secondary antibodies were: 1:200 anti-Rat-FITC (712-095-153, Jackson ImmunoResearch) for α-Cat KD quantification; 1:200 anti-Mouse-Alexa488 (AB_2338189, Invitrogen) and 1:200 anti-Rat-Alexa568 (A-11077, ThermoFisher) for SIM. Embryos were also stained with 1:1500 Phalloidin-iFluor647 (ab176759, Abcam).

Indirect immunofluorescence was performed as described [35 (link)]. The primary antibodies are anti-mCherry monoclonal antibody (16D7) at 1:200 dilution (Thermo Fisher, MA) and anti-α-tubulin antibodies (clone B-5-1-2, Sigma-Aldrich) at 1:5000. The secondary antibody was anti-rat-Alexa 568 (Thermo Fisher, MA) at 1:1000 and DyLight 405 goat anti-mouse antibody (BioLegend, CA) at 1:2000, respectively. Cells were stained with 1 μM or 0.5 μM Sytox Green (Invitrogen, CA). Images were collected using an inverted Zeiss LSM 510 Laser Scanning confocal microscope. Images in S1 Fig were collected using DeltaVision microscope. Images were exported in TIFF format, merged and analyzed using ImageJ (NIH).

Cells and tissues were fixed in PFA 2% and processed for histology and immunocytochemistry as previously described (Gargioli et al, 2008 (link)). The primary antibodies used were mouse anti-Pax7 (DSHB) at 1:20, mouse MF20 (DSHB) at 1:2, rabbit anti-laminin (SIGMA #9393) at 1:100, rabbit anti-LacZ (Cappel) at 1:100, rat anti-VE-cadherin (clone BV13 homemade) at 1:100, mouse anti-SMA (Sigma) at 1:100, mouse anti-dystrophin (Vector) at 1:100, mouse anti-neuronal class III β-tubulin (COVANCE) and alpha-bungarotoxin Alexa594 (Molecular probes) at 50 mg/ml. The secondary antibodies used at 1:100 were anti-mouse Alexa555 (Molecular Probes), anti-rabbit Alexa488 (Molecular Probes) and anti-rat Alexa568 (Molecular Probes), Cy2-anti-mouse (Jackson), AMCA-anti-mouse (Jackson), goat anti-mouse horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated IgG (Bio-Rad) for immunohistochemistry against MF20, developing the peroxidase reaction by AEC (3-amino-9-ethylcarbazole) substrate (SIGMA). The sections were photographed with Nikon ECLIPSE 2000-TE microscope or with Olympus FV 1000 confocal laser scanning microscope for the confocal images. VE-cad-positive capillary endothelial cells were counted under fluorescence microscopy (×200) in five randomly selected fields of different sections from each sample and related to the number of muscle fibres in the same section (Díaz-Manera et al, 2010 (link)).

Embryos were collected and labeled with antibodies as previously described [60] (link). The following antibodies were used to localize proteins in Drosophila embryos: rat anti-sim (1∶100) [10] (link), rabbit anti-GFP (1∶500; Molecular Probes, Life Technologies), mouse anti-GFP (1∶200; Promega), rabbit anti-dys (1∶400) [39] (link); rabbit anti-odd-skipped (odd; 1∶400; Jim Skeath, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO, USA); and anti-reversed polarity (repo; 1∶30), anti-engrailed (1∶1), and 2A12 (1∶5) MAbs (Developmental Studies Hybridoma Bank). Secondary antibodies were used at 1∶200 and included anti-rat-Alexa568, anti-mouse-Alexa568, anti-rabbit-Alexa405 and anti-rabbit-Alexa488 (Molecular Probes). Images were obtained on a Zeiss 710 in the Cellular and Molecular Imaging Facility at NCSU.

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.
