  Figure 2. Expression of clk2 during early development of X. tropicalis. (a) RT‐PCR analysis of temporal expression of clk2. “−RT” indicates RNA of whole embryos (stage 20) examined in the absence of reverse transcriptase. histone h4 was used as the loading control. (b–h) Spatial expression of clk2 analyzed by whole‐mount in situ hybridization. clk2 was expressed in the animal region (b), and only a faint signal was detected in the vegetal region at the blastula stages (c). During gastrula stages (d), the expression of clk2 was localized to the dorsal region (arrowheads). clk2 expression was detected in neural tissues at the neurula stage (e and f). Expression of clk2 was also found in eyes, otic vesicle and branchial arches of tailbud stage embryos (g and h). (b) animal view. (c and d): vegetal view. (e–g) dorsal view with the anterior to the left. (h) lateral side view with the anterior to the left. Embryonic stages were determined according to Nieuwkoop and Faber (1967).
