Figure 5. Expression of Xlcgt during Xenopus development. Nieuwkoop-Faber stages of embryogenesis are indicated. A,B: Xlcgt is expressed in the dorsal structures of stages 15-18 embryos. C: At stages 25-28, Xlcgt is expressed in the notochord. Inset: Transversal section (as indicated in C) shows strong expression in the notochord. D: At later stages (stage 35), the pattern of expression was maintained in the notochord and a faint expression domain was detected in the cephalic region. n, Notochord; hm, head mesoderm. |
