Detection of a GBM charge defect in a podocyte-specific agrin mutant mouse using the cationic probe polyethyleneimine to detect anionic sites. In the control, discrete subepithelial anionic sites are revealed (A), but these are significantly reduced in the mutant (B). Despite this reduction in anionic charge, mutants displayed no detectable filtration barrier defects.
