1. From: Analysis of Kinesin-2 Function in Photoreceptor Cells Using Synchronous Cre-loxP Knockout of Kif3a with RHO-Cre
Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci ;47(11): doi: /iovs
Figure Legend:
Photoreceptor degeneration due to the loss of KIF3A. Light micrographs of retinas from a control P28 mouse (A) and from P7 (B), P14 (C), and P28 (D) Kif3a flox /Kif3a flox ;RHO-Cre-8 mice. Sections were prepared from blocks embedded in resin. (E) A cone photoreceptor synaptic terminal (pedicle) from P28 Kif3a flox /Kif3a flox ;RHO-Cre-8 retina. Arrowheads: synaptic ribbons; in contrast to rod synaptic terminals (spherules), cone pedicles have more than one synaptic ribbon. Scale bar: (A–D) 25 μm; (E) 500 nm.
