Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Representative images of mitochondrial morphology (mito-GFP) in Pax6+ (Apical progenitor in ventricular zone (VZ)) and βIII-tub+ (Newborn neuron in cortical plate (CP)) cell in E16.5 mouse cortex, following in utero retroviral infection at E12.5. Quantified mitochondrial length from two biological replicate experiments. Each data point represents an individual cell average mitochondrial size. ****P < 0.0001; unpaired t test. (B) Schematic of the labeling strategy using photoconverted (PC) histone H2B-mEos4b. Representative images of PC cell labelled with mito-Nep2. (C) Representative images and timeline of PC experiment to determine kinetics of mitochondria dynamics following mitosis in mouse embryonic cortical cells. Quantified mitochondrial length from three biological replicate experiments. Each data point represents an individual cell average mitochondrial size, together with fate marker expression. Red: βIII-tub+ neuron; Green: Tbr2+ intermediate progenitor; Gray: double negative (DN) RGC. (D) Timeline and representative images of PC experiment using M1 and Mdivi-1. (E,G) Quantified mitochondrial length from three biological replicate experiments. (E) 3 hours post-label, (G) 6 hours post-PC. Each data point represents an individual cell average mitochondrial size. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P ≤ 0.0001; Dunnett’s multiple comparisons test. (F,H) Quantification of each cell fate marker+ cells among PC cells from at least four biological replicate experiments. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001; Dunn’s multiple comparisons test.
