Fig. 3. Localization of XeIF-4AIII transcripts during Xenopus development. (A) Dorsal view of a neural plate stage embryo (stage 14); anterior is to right. XeIF-4AIII transcript is enriched in a region around the blastopore (arrowhead) and in the anterior neural plate (arrow). (B) Dorsal view of a neural plate stage embryo (stage 16); anterior is to right. High levels of XeIF-4AIII transcript can be seen in the anterior neural tube (arrow). (C) Lateral view of a stage 23 embryo; anterior is at right, dorsal is at top. (D) Dorsal view of embryo shown in C. Line in C and D demarcates region of mid-trunk eIF-4AIII expression. (E) Lateral view of a stage 27 embryo; anterior is at right, dorsal is at top. (F) Detail showing head of embryo in E. ov: otic vesicle. Embryos in C-F were cleared in 2:1 benzyl benzoate/benzyl alcohol. Image published in: Weinstein DC et al. (1997) Copyright © 1997.
