FIG. 5. Expression of XSlug in embryos lacking paraxial or axial mesoderm. (A) Northern analysis of RNA isolated from stage 17 embryos. Total RNA was isolated from 4 control, -DMZ, or -DLMZ embryos and from 10 control or LiCl-hyperdorsalized embryos. Two embryo equivalents of RNA were loaded per well for Northern analysis. Filters were sequentially hybridized with Xenopus cDNA probes for XSlug, nrp-1, muscle-specific actin (m-actin), and EF1a. (B) Whole-mount in situ hybridization with XSlug was performed on mid-neurula stage embryos (see Materials and Methods), dorsal view. (C) XSlug expression in mid-neurula-stage embryos (-DMZ), dorsal view. (D) XSlug expression in mid-neurula-stage embryos (-DLMZ), dorsal view.
