  Figure 2: CaD is expressed in neural crest tissue during early Xenopus development. Expression of CaD begins at late gastrula stage (stage 13) at the borders of the forming neural plate, the site of initial neural crest induction. Its expression increases in the CNC region by neurula stages (stage 15) and continues in the migrating neural crest cells as they populate the branchial arches (stage 20 onward). By tailbud stages, the expression decreases and only is present in part of the ganglia and somite at low levels (stage 26). All embryos are oriented with anterior to the left.
