Figure Caption

Fig. 7 Expression of Lim3 in the epiphysis is restricted to a subset of projection neurons. (A–C) Four to five Lim3-expressing cells are seen on each side of the midline in a ventrolateral position in the epiphysis of a 28-h embryo. (A) Dorsal view. (B) Lateral view. (C) Anterior view. This optical section through the epiphysis, with the diencephalon in focus, is slightly deeper than in Fig. 5D. (D) Dorsal view of a 2-day-old embryo. Whole-mount embryos were double labeled with anti-S-antigen (red) and anti-Lim3 (blue, nuclei). Four to five projection neurons express Lim3 protein. Several cells, especially in the center of the epiphysis, express the photoreceptor marker, S-antigen (arrow). By this stage several prominent melanocytes are seen. Scale bar is 50 μm.
