(a, b) dRagC is not required for Rheb-induced cell growth. (a) The area of Rheb-overexpressing cells in control or dRagC mutant (dRagC−/−) backgrounds under fed conditions, relative to that of neighbouring control cells which were assigned a value of 1. Overexpression of Rheb led to a significant increase in cell area in both control and dRagC mutant backgrounds. Data are mean ± s.d., *P = 0.034 (n = 5), **P = 6.1 × 10−3 (n = 5), Student's two-tailed t-test (n represents number of experimental samples). (b) A representative example of a clone of Rheb-overexpressing cells in a dRagC−/− animal. Rheb transgene-expressing cells are marked by co-expression of GFP. Cell boundaries are labelled by phalloidin staining in red; nuclei are labelled by DAPI in blue. Scale bar represents 50 μm.
