Fig. 2. xRXRβ transcripts are found predominantly in the anterior neurectoderm and adjacent neural crest. A transcript-specific probe derived form the 5′ part of the cDNA clone was used to detect xRXRβ transcripts in the neurula and tailbud embryo. The embryos were rendered transparent in Murray�s clear. (A) Dorsal view at the neurula stage shows an accumulation of transcripts in the anterior neurectoderm (arrowhead) and in adjacent neural crest (open arrow), though essentially all tissues express a low level of xRXRβ when determined by RNase protection assay (data not shown). (B) At the tailbud stage transcripts are localised to the anterior neural tube (arrowhead), the dorso-frontal segment of the developing eye (e) and migrating cranial neural crest (bracketed).
