Fig 7. Cooperativity of Nemp1 and Ran in early eye development. A. Spatiotemporal expression of Xenopus ran in the early development.
Developmental stages are indicated. (a) Lateral view. (b, c) Dorsal view with the anterior side up. (d) Lateral view with the dorsal side up. opv, optic vesicles;
otv, otic vesicles; ba, branchial arches. B. Eye defect phenotypes by knockdown of nemp1 and ran. nemp1MOs (5–20 ng) and n-βxgal mRNA as a tracer
(blue) were injected into the animal pole region of a dorsal blastomere at the four cell stage with ranMO or standard control MO (stdMO). Upper panels show
eye-defect phenotypes at the tailbud stage (around stage 35) as indicated. The lower bar graph shows percentages of eye defects at tailbud stages. n, the
number of embryos examined; exp, the number of independent experiments. |
