Figure 3

Expression analysis of αA-BAC transgenic mice. EGFP expression at E10.5 in the lens pit (A, F) and within the E11.5 lens vesicle (B, G). Expression is upregulated in lens fiber cells at E12.5, and very small expression is also apparent in a few cells of the lens epithelium (arrow) (C, H). Strong EGFP expression continues in the fiber cells at E14.5 (D, I) and in the PND1 lens (E, J). Nuclei are stained blue with DAPI, and the cytoskeletal staining is red. Lens fiber cells, f; lens pit, lp; lens vesicle, lv. Scale bar = 100 μm.
