The nearest homologs of these clones are listed. Five clones showed no matches in database searches. Four clones have been described in genome-wide sequencing projects as hypothetical proteins. The majority of known clones were full length.

N/D, not determined.

*

RT-PCR analysis performed during neurula stages (stage 15) (see alsoFig. 2 and text for discussion).

Whole-mount in situ hybridization data are based on neurula-stage embryos. Neural implies expression detected in the nervous system, although not necessarily restricted to it (see also Fig. 4).

Genes identified as downregulated genes. All other genes represent upregulated clones identified in the microarray.
