Figure 2 Rescue of axial defects resulting from Eng-Sia injection. At the four-cell stage, both dorsal blastomeres were injected with 30 pg of Eng-Sia (A–D) in combination with 1 ng of β-galactosidase (A), 5 pg of Xwnt8 (B), 1 ng of β-catenin (C), or 100 pg of siamois (D) mRNA. (E) As a control, both dorsal blastomeres were injected with 1 ng of β-galactosidase mRNA. See Table 2 for quantitation. In a parallel experiment, ventral injection with Xwnt8, β-catenin, or siamois mRNA induced axis formation (data not shown). Image published in: Kessler DS (1997) Copyright © 1997.
