Figure 5.

The width of the central band of AChR clusters in diaphragms at E14.5 is narrower in agrn−/− (A) than in control (A′) littermates. A difference is also found between Hb9−/− mutants (B) and control (B′) littermates. C, Widths of AChR cluster bands (means ± SE) in agrn−/− and Hb9−/− mutants relative to control littermates. Data are based on five agrn−/− mutants (2 litters; p < 0.05) and four Hb9−/− mutants (3 litters; p < 0.1). For method, see supplemental Figure 2 (available at www.jneurosci.org as supplemental material). Scale bar, 70 μm.
