Fig. 5. Expression of CAP2 in sectioned muscle and eye. CAP2 is also expressed in the myoblasts as they aggregate and fuse into tubes (arrows) (A), but transcription begins to diminish when the muscle fibers have differentiated sufficiently to show striations (compare relatively undifferentiated dark arrow with striated white arrows (B). Expression in lens (L) is evident in the domain of forming lens fibers (see arrow in (C)), but it disappears rapidly thereafter whereupon the outer and inner plexiform layers (OPL and IPL, respectively) of the retina, as well as the chorion (C) transcribe the gene (D). |
