A wild-type XX embryo (<30-cell stage) was stained with propidium iodide, a nucleic acid-intercalating molecule (red), in (A) and with anti-DPY-26 (green) [as in (4)] in (B). A merged image is shown in (C) (white arrows, condensed mitotic chromosomes in anaphase; yellow arrows, interphase nuclei). Scale bar, 10 &mu;m. (D to F) DPY-26 is localized to the X chromosomes of XX animals that have activated dosage compensation. A wild-type XX embryo (>200-cell stage) was triply stained with the DNA- intercalating molecule diamidophenylindole (DAPI) (blue), with anti-DPY-27 (red) in (D), and with anti-DPY-26 (green) in (E). A merged image is shown in (F). Scale bar, 5 &mu;m. (G to I) Enlargements of the boxed nuclei in (D) through (F), respectively. In this optical section both X chromosomes are visible, and the coincident positions of DPY-26 and DPY-27 on the X chromosomes are apparent. Scale bar, 1 &mu;m. Embryos in (D) through (F) were analyzed by wide- field fluorescence microscopy and deconvolution software (23). Images in (A) through (C) and in all subsequent figures were obtained by confocal microscopy.
