Fig. 3. Expression of Endodermin, Darmin and Darmin-related. Embryos are shown in lateral (A, B, D) and animal views (C). (A) Tail bud embryo (stage 28); note expression of Endodermin (Edd) in the fore-, mid-, and hindgut. (B) Sibling embryo showing Darmin expression restricted to the midgut. (C) Abundant maternal transcripts of Darmin-related (Darmin-r) in 4-cell stage embryo. (D) Advanced tail bud embryo (stage 32) displaying weak expression of Darmin-r in the lens (ls) and pronephric glomus (gl). Transversal section in inset shows transcripts in the glomera. |
