Immunostaining for beta-tubulin III (Tuj1) at embryonic day (E)12.5 and E13.5 in the cerebral cortex of control and mutant embryos. (A, B, E, F) E12.5. (A, E) At E12.5, Tuj1 staining is restricted to cells of the preplate of the control cerebral cortex. (B, F) The mutant has a broader Tuj1 expression pattern with positive cells located in the ventricular surface (F, black arrow). (C, D, G, H) There is a similar staining pattern at E13.5. (C, G) The control has Tuj1 positive cell in the preplate only whereas (D, H) the mutant has more Tuj1 staining with positive cells located in at the ventricular surface (H, black arrow). Boxed areas in (A-D) are shown at higher magnification in (E-H). All sections are coronal and dorsal is up. Scale bars: (A, B) 200 μm; (C, D) 400 Mm; (E-H) 50 μm.
