Fig. 5 cap1 expression is enriched in adaxial cells prior to and during their pre-migratory behaviors and is dependent on Hedgehog signaling. (A) In a 5-somite stage wild-type embryo, cap1 is expressed specifically in the adaxial cells of both newly formed somites (upper arrowhead) and the presomitic mesoderm (lower arrowhead). (B) At the 12-somite stage, cap1 continues to be expressed within the adaxial cells of somitic and presomitic mesoderm (arrowheads), and becomes increasingly upregulated in the overlying ectoderm. (C) 10-somite stage embryos showing cap1 expression in wild-type (left) and yot mutant (right) embryos. cap1 is not expressed in the adaxial cells of yot mutants (arrowheads), which are deficient in Hedgehog signal transduction.
