Expressions of ectodermal patterning factors appear normal in <i>arl6ip1</i>-MO1-injected embryos.

<p>Dorsal views of wild-type (A–E) and <i>arl6ip1</i> morphant (F–J) embryos at the 3-somite stage. Anterior to the top. The neural ectodermal patterning factors of <i>wnt8</i> (A, F), <i>bmp4</i> (B, G), <i>msxb</i> (C, H), <i>dlx3b</i> (D, I), and <i>pax3</i> (E, J). Normal expressions of these genes reveal that ectodermal patterning factors are not affected in <i>arl6ip1</i> morphants, suggesting that <i>Arl6ip1</i> does not have a role in ectodermal patterning. Scale bar: 100 µm.
