Fig. 1. VegT contains a
T-domain found in
proteins from C.
elegans, Drosophila,
Xenopus and mammals
and is expressed both
maternally and
zygotically.
(A) Alignment of VegT
with the T-box DNAbinding
domain in other
proteins. mTbx2, mouse
Tbox2; omb, Drosophila
optomotor blind;
F21H11.3, presumptive
protein from the
Caenorhabditis genome
project; VegT, Xenopus
VegT; Xbra, Xenopus
Brachyury. Identical residues are shown on a black background.
(B) Vegetally localized expression of VegT. The total RNA
equivalent of five stage VI oocyte halves was loaded on each lane
and hybridized with VegT and FGFR probes. V, vegetal; A, animal;
T, whole embryo. (C) Developmental expression of VegT. The RNA
equivalent of 3 embryos was loaded per lane. OV, ovulated egg; 4,
4-cell embryos; other staging according to Nieuwkoop and Faber
(1976). In B and C, FGFR expression was used as a control for RNA
loading. Image published in: Zhang J and King ML (1996) Copyright © 1996. Image reproduced with permission of the publisher and the copyright holder. This is an Open Access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License. Larger Image Printer Friendly View |
