Fig. 1. Voltage-dependent potassium 1.1 (Kv1.1)–like protein is expressed at low levels in the Xenopus retina. Immunolabelling of transverse sections through the eye and brain of a stage 40 Xenopus embryo was done with the anti-mouse Kv1.1 antibody (A,B) and the Kv1.1 antibody preincubated with a control Kv1.1 peptide antigen (C). Migrating neural crest cells are immunopositive (A), but only weak Kv1.1-like immunoreactivity is observed in the retina (B). D, dorsal; E, eye; Hb, hindbrain; NCC, neural crest cells; L, lens; OPL, outer plexiform layer; V, ventral. Scale bar 200 m for A and 100 m for B and C. Image published in: Pollock NS et al.
