FIG. 3. (A) Spatial expression pattern of XOs4 in Xenopus embryos. (a) Vegetal view of a Stage-101 embryo; dorsal is up; arrows mark dorsal blastopore lip. (b) Dorsal view of a Stage-15 embryo; anterior is to the left. (c) Transverse section of a Stage-28 embryo demonstrating staining in dorsal neural tube and neural crest. (d) Lateral view of a Stage-32 embryo; anterior is to the left. np, neural plate; epi, epidermis; nc, neural crest; nt, neural tube; nc, notochord; ey, eye; ov, otic vessicle; ba, branchial arches; pn, pronephros. (B) Intracellular localization of XOs4. (b) Ectopically expressed Flag-tagged XOs4 is localized in Stage-101 Xenopus embryos to the cytoplasm and the plasma membrane and exhibits staining characteristic of nuclear localization. (a) FLAG-ldb1 is localized to the nucleus and exhibits characteristic staining. (d) XOs4 is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus when expressed in Cos-1 cells. (c) pCMV-FLAG-DPC4 coexpressed with an activated Activin receptor (pCMV-ActRIB(T-D), FLAG-Smad4, is localized to the nucleus in Cos-1 cells.
