Caption

Crx^Rip/Crx⁺ retinal photoreceptors lack outer segments and possess very short inner segments. Transmission EM images in the dorsal-ventral midline plane taken through the central retinas of 1-month-old (A) wild-type (Crx^+/+) and (B) heterozygous mutant mice. mito, mitochondria; nuc, nucleus; olm, outer limiting membrane. Original magnification, x1,200. Scale bar: 2 um. (C) Transmission EM images in the dorsal-ventral midline plane taken through the central retinas of 1-month-old wild-type and heterozygous mutant mice, showing the presence of ciliary microtubules in the mutant photoreceptors. CM, ciliary microtubule. Original magnification, x5,000. Scale bar: 1 um.
