FIG. 1. Control embryos that are injected with a construct lacking the integrin a6 insert develop normally (A and C), as do embryos
injected with constructs containing a6 in the sense orientation (Lallier et al., 1996). Xenopus embryos that have been microinjected with
antisense integrin a6 constructs display a distinct morphology of perturbed neurulation (B and D–F). (C) An example of a control embryo
at higher magnification, displaying a closed neural tube on its dorsal surface. (D) A dorsal view of a neurulation-perturbed sibling embryo
displaying a flattened neural plate. (E) A rostral view, while (F) is a caudal view of a similarly perturbed embryo. Scale bar represents 200 mm.
