Fig. 6. Spatial expression patterns of G56 mRNA in neurula and
tailbud Xenopus embryos. A: Lateral view of a stage 20 embryo. The
expression of G56 mRNA is predominantly associated with the developing
brain, the cement gland anlage (cg), and somites that have undergone
rotation (arrowheads 1-6). B: Dorsal view of a stage 21 embryo
illustrating G56 mRNA expression in somites (arrowheads 1-8), and the
unsegmented somitogenic mesoderm (sm). C: Lateral view of a stage 26
embryo. G56 mRNAs are localized to segmented somites (arrowheads),
and to different parts of the hindbrain (hb). Expression in the cement
gland (cg) has ceased by this stage. D: Dorsal view of a stage 26 embryo
at a higher magnification to illustrate expression of G56 mRNA in the
differentiating somites. G56 mRNAs are present around somite nuclei,
which are aligned vertically in each somite. Thus, the staining appears as
a stripe (arrowheads) in each somite block. Scale bars: A,B,D = 144 pm;
C = 225 pm. Image published in: Brändli AW and Kirschner MW (1995) Copyright © 1995. Image reproduced with permission of the Publisher, John Wiley & Sons.
