Number

ZIN-StaV-0-3

Species: Capitella teleta Blake, Grassle & Eckelbarger, 2009    Annelida

Preparation Type: whole mount

Prepared: V.V. Starunov

Description: Musculature is stained by TRITC-conjugated phalloidin. Nervous system is labeled using antibodies against acetylated tubulin and serotonin.

Method: acetylated alpha-tubulin, F-actin in muscle fibers (Phalloidin), serotonin

Method Description: The preparation was made using the method described in: V. V. Starunov et al., A metameric origin for the annelid pygidium? BMC Evol. Biol. 15, 1–17 (2015). (http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/15/25)
