Fig. 8 Variation with temperature of various gene transcripts.

The δCt of genes (her1, her7, hes6, deltaC, deltaD, notch1a, myog, mespa, and mespb) known to play a role in somitogenesis relative to reference genes (rpl13a or β-actin) are plotted as a function of somite stage. Notice that as a function of somite stage the data taken at different temperatures collapse on the same curve. For some genes for which δCt appears to vary linearly with somite stage (exponentially decreasing concentrations) we display the best fit. For others the continuous curve is just a guide to the eye. The increasing concentration of myog (decreasing δCt values) is consistent with its role as a differentiation factor during myogenesis which follows somite formation.
