Essential Roles of dPob in the Biosynthesis of Multi-pass Transmembrane Proteins

Caption

Immunostaining of a dPob-deficient Drosophila mosaic retina expressing red fluorescent protein as a wild-type cell marker (red), by using anti-rhodopsin antibody (blue) and anti-Na+K+ATPase (green). The asterisks (*) show dPob-deficient homozygous photoreceptors. dPob-deficient photoreceptors lack all multi-pass proteins, but not the membrane proteins that Dr. Satoh investigated.
