FIG. 2. Dissection of embryos. The dashed lines indicate the incisions made with glass needles. At stage 12 to 121/2, the neural plate was
dissected without underlying mesoderm (meso); ventral ectoderm (ecto) and endoderm together with mesoderm (labeled endo) were also
collected and cultured for 5 hr at 240C in modified Barth's solution (88 mM NaCI/1 mM KCI/0.8 mM MgCl2/0.8 mM CaCl2/2.4 mM NaHCO3/7.5
mM Tris, pH 7.6) before RNA extraction. At stage 17-19, the closing neural tube was dissected together with the underlying chordamesoderm
(neur). Ectoderm (ecto) was peeled off; the lateral plate mesoderm was collected together with the endoderm (labeled endo). Image published in: Richter K et al. (1988) Copyright © 1988.
