Fig. 1. Expression of Arg during early Xenopus development. A) Schematic representation of sequence alignment between human and Xenopus Arg proteins. The SH2, SH3 and tyrosine kinase domains are over 92% identical, while the actin binding domains (BDs) are 74–76% identical between the two proteins. B) Temporal expression of Arg assayed by RT-PCR (25 cycles) showed that Arg was expressed maternally and its transcripts persisted till at least tailbud stages. C) Spatial expression of Arg assayed by in situ hybridization of gastrula (panels a and b), neurula (panel c), tailbud (panels d and e) and early tadpole (panel f) embryos. The orientations of the embryos are: panel a, side view with dorsal to the right; panel b, vegetal view with dorsal to the right; panels c and e, dorsal view with anterior to the left; panels d and f, side view with anterior to the left.
