The intracellular domain of Plexin B3 is required for signaling transduction in retinal axon guidance. (A) Two morpholinos were designed to interfere with the splicing of exon 4 (E4) and exon 21 (E21) of Plexin B3 pre-mRNA. Sequencing the mis-spliced mRNA revealed that MOE4 results in a truncated protein remaining only part of extracellular part and MOE21 results in a truncated protein missing the majority of intracellular domains. (B) Plexin B3 MOE21 treatment causing misprojection of retinal axons into the ipsilateral tectum (arrow), similar as the effect of MOE4. The image is dorsal view, rostral to the top. Scale bar, 100 μm.
