EnR-pitx2 interferes with specification of the mesendoderm. Embryos were injected vegetally into each blastomere at the four-cell stage with 50, 100, or 200 pg of EnR-pitx2 mRNA, collected at stage 11, and analyzed by RT-PCR for the expression of sox-17β, mixer, GATA-4, and edd (panendodermal markers); dkk-1 and cerberus (anterior endomesoderm markers); Xbra (general mesoderm); chordin (dorsal mesoderm); Xanf-1 and Xanf-2 (ectodermal markers at this stage); siamois and Xnr-1 (dorsal endoderm); and histone H4 (loading control).
