Med12 regulates her5 expression in endodermal cells during gastrulation and somitogenesis. (A, A′) In situ hybridization at 90% epiboly shows specific reduction of her5 expression in endodermal cells in med12s432 mutants compared to wild-type siblings. The V shaped stripe represents the domain of her5 expression in the midbrain–hindbrain boundary. (B–D′) Injection of med12 MO into the Tg(-0.7her5:EGFP)ne2067 line caused decreased GFP expression. Note that the Tg(-0.7her5:EGFP)ne2067 line shows GFP expression in the pharyngeal endoderm as well as the organ-forming region during late somitogenesis stages (C, D). White bracket in C–D′ indicates pharyngeal region. Exposure time for imaging B, B′ was 300 ms; C, C′ was 250 ms; D, D′ was 250 ms. Dorsal views, anterior to the top. |
