Table 1 In the S9 FE of grk, the a-p Vmem-gradient is shallower

From: Bioelectrical and cytoskeletal patterns correlate with altered axial polarity in the follicular epithelium of the Drosophila mutant gurken

  1. §a-p Vmem-gradients (fluorescence intensity ratios cFC/mFC) in the S9 FE of wt and grk were evaluated as described previously [7]. #a-p pHi-gradients (fluorescence intensity ratios pFE/aFE) were quantified according to Fig. 1e2. The higher the fluorescence intensity ratio is, the steeper is the gradient (n = 5; see also Fig. 3a)
