Figure Caption

Fig. 1 nlcam is specifically upregulated in the Rx3/chk mutant. Whole mount in situ expression patterns of CAMs in wild type (A, C, E, G, I, K) and chk mutant (B, D, F, H, J, L) embryos at the 6S (A, B, E–L) or Bud (C, D) stage. Dorsal views, anterior to the left. (A, B) nlcam, 6SS. Insets show cross sections through the anterior neural plate (dorsal is up), showing upregulation of nlcam in the chk presumptive eye field. (C, D) nlcam, Bud stage. nlcam is upregulated in chk at this stage, shortly after the onset of Rx3 expression (domain marked by white stippled line). No other CAMs tested show changes in expression pattern. E, F: ncam. G, H: alcam. I, J: N-cadherin. K, L: E-cadherin. Sections for ncam and N-cadherin, which are expressed in the eye field, are also shown. For alcam and E-cadherin, where there is no or very little expression in the eye, the Rx3 expression domain is marked by the white stippled line.
