Fig. 3. Expression of Xenopus Tob2 in early Xenopus embryos. (A) Northern blot analysis of XTob2 expression in normal Xenopus embryos. There was an XTob2 transcript of about 5.5 kb expressed maternally and throughout early Xenopus development (closed arrow). An additional, larger transcript of about 7.5 kb was detected by the late gastrula stage (open arrow). Src is used as a loading control. (B–D) Whole mount in situ hybridization analysis of XTob2 expression in early Xenopus embryos. (B) Lateral view of a gastrula (stage 10.5) embryo; the animal pole is up. XTob2 is expressed ubiquitously in the animal region of the embryo. Arrowhead, dorsal blastopore lip. (C) Dorsolateral view of a late gastrula (Stage 12.5) embryo; anterior is to the left, dorsal is up. (D) Lateral view of a tailbud stage embryo (stage 30/31). Note that there is elevated expression in several areas: the anterior ventral blood islands (black arrow), somites (white arrow), otic vesicle, eyes, brain, branchial arches and the heart anlage.
