Lectin histochemistry of the Drosophila embryo

Abstract

A selection of lectins was used to characterise changes in the distribution of glycoconjugates during the embryonic development of Drosophila melanogaster. The blastoderm of pre-gastrulation embryos bound low levels of the lectins LPA, UEA-I and PNA. The germ line progenitors (pole cells) bound ConA, PNA and LPA. The yolk granules, the trachea, and the gut bound GSA-I. All lectins had detectable labeling of the ectoderm. The somata of the …
