Figure 7. Expression of a CG7878-related gene. A: Ddx43 is diffusely expressed throughout the neural plate, preplacodal ectoderm (PPE), and dorsal epidermis (anterior view). B: At neural tube closure, it is very weakly expressed in the neural tube, a few placodes (dlp, L) and migrating neural crest (side view). C: At larval stages, it is expressed throughout the brain, retina, several placode derivatives (olf, oto, L), branchial arches, somites, heart, and nephric mesoderm (side view). D–F: Transverse sections at midbrain (D), hindbrain (E), and spinal (F) levels demonstrate neural (mb, r, hb, sc), lens, branchial arch, heart, otocyst, somite, and nephric mesoderm expression. |
