Fig. S3 cx46 Expression and morpholino knockdown confirms that cx46 is the affected gene in dco mutants. (A–D) Whole-mount RNA in situ hybridization reveals cx46 expression in the heart and lens. Expression of cx46 at (A) 36, (B) 42, (C) 48, and (D) 72 hpf. A, atrium; V, ventricle. (E) cx46 and β-Actin control RT-PCR from FACS-sorted myocardial and endocardial cells at 36, 48, and 72 hpf. (F) Morpholino knockdown of cx46 recapitulates dco cardiac phenotype. Of WT embryos injected with an ATG cx46 morpholino, 88% are indistinguishable from dco mutant embryos and display severe impairment of cardiac conduction (n = 125/142).
