WBPicture0000007554DescriptionExpression of the Laminin alfa gene epi-1. To observe epi-1 RNA expression, embryos were hybridized with antisense epi-1 probes (left panels in A-C) and stained for DNA with DAPI (right panels in A-C). Anterior is leftwards. (A) The endodermal and mesodermal precursor cells sink inwards from the ventral surface as gastrulation begins. epi-1 RNA is detected in the nuclei of the ingressing cells (arrows). (B) At midgastrulation, epi-1 RNA is detected in the cytoplasm of intestinal, pharyngeal and myoblast cells, but not epidermal (e) precursor cells. (C) At the beginning of elongation, expression is detected primarily in the body wall myoblast cells (m). Expression is weak or is not detected in intestinal (i), pharyngeal (p) and epidermal cells (e).
