Figure 6. XMLC2 is a marker for terminal differentiation of cardiac muscle in Xenopus embryos. The distribution of XMLC2 RNA was examined by use of albino embryos and digoxigenin-labeled probes. Staining was detected first in stage 28/29 tadpoles in the presumptive heart region and was subsequently confined to the developing heart tube. A stage 32 embryo is shown before (a) and after (b) clearing. In later stages, staining was detected in both atrial and venticular chambers of the beating tadpole heart. No staining was detected with a sense control probe.
