  Figure S2. Xenopus laevis Cst Developmental and Spatial Expression (A) Developmental time course of X. laevis Cstα and Cstβ expression by RT-PCR of egg lysate (maternal transcripts), whole embryo ranging from Stage 10 (gastrulation) to Stage 42 (late tadpole), and adult heart. Ef1α is used as a positive control. (B-K) Whole mount in situ hybridization of Stage 14 (neurula) to Stage 40 (tadpole) embryos using a Cst-specific probe common to both Cstα and Cstβ. B,C are dorsal views with anterior to the left. D-H, and J are lateral views with anterior to the left: hindbrain (hb), presomitic mesoderm (psm), somites (s), heart primordium (hp), eye (e), otic vesicle (ot), nasal placode (np), trigeminal ganglion (tg), facial placodes (p), heart (h), kidney (k), vascular vitelline network (vvn).

  Figure S4. Xenopus Cst Is Expressed throughout the Linear Heart Tube Whole mount double in situ hybridization of Stage 29 embryos using a Nkx2.5-specific probe (pink) to mark the cardiac field and a Cst-specific probe (blue). Left panel is a lateral view with anterior to the left. Right panel is a ventral view with anterior to the top.
