Fig. 5. Dist'ibution of gp43 mRNA in the ovary by in situ hybridization. Paraffin sections of Xenopus ovary were hybridized with DIGlabeled antisense (a) or sense (b) riboprobe of approximately 0.45 kb in length. The specifically hybridized probe was visualized with an alkaline phosphatase-coupled anti-DIG antibody. The signal was only detected in the cytoplasm of young oocytes (stained dark blue) but not in the somatic cells. The rests. except the cortical pigment layer, were observed as faint and brownish. I-IV indicate Dumont stage numbers. Bar in (b) represents 300 ~m. Image published in: Kubo H et al. (1997) Copyright © 1997. Image reproduced with permission of the Publisher, John Wiley & Sons.
