Reference: J:81328 Natale DR, et al., Rac-1 and IQGAP are potential regulators of E-cadherin-catenin interactions during murine preimplantation development. Mech Dev. 2002 Dec;119 Suppl 1:S21-6
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:2652275
Gene symbol: Rac1

Results
Specimen 3a: postnatal (more )
Note: Mature oocyte.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: oocyte Present 3a Expression was present in the cytoplasm and in the cell margins. There was also some punctate staining near the cell membrane.

Specimen 3b: embryonic day 1.0 (more )
Note: Two-cell embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS2: 2-cell stage embryo Present Regionally restricted 3b Expression was adjacent to the cell membrane encircling each blastomere. There was puncate vesicular staining in the cytoplasm near the cell margins. There was also faint nuclear staining.

Specimen 3c: embryonic day 2.0 (more )
Note: Four-cell embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS3: 4-cell stage embryo Present Regionally restricted 3c Expression was adjacent to the cell membrane encircling each blastomere. There was puncate vesicular staining in the cytoplasm near the cell margins. There was also faint nuclear staining.

Specimen 3d: embryonic day 2.5 (more )
Note: Compacted 8-cell embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS3: compacted morula Present Spotted 3d Punctate staining was seen in the cytoplasm, primarily around the cell margins of each blastomere.

Specimen 3e: embryonic day 2.5 (more )
Note: Compacted 8-cell embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS3: compacted morula Present Spotted 3e Punctate staining was seen in the cytoplasm, primarily around the cell margins of each blastomere.

Specimen 3f: embryonic day 3.0 (more )
Note: Morula.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS4: compacted morula Present Spotted 3f There was punctate staining in the cytoplasm near the nucleus. Staining was absent from the cell margins.

Specimen 3g: embryonic day 4.0 (more )
Note: Blastocyst.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS5: mural trophectoderm Present Spotted 3g There was punctate staining the cytoplasm. This staining exhibted a more apical localization in polar trophectoderm cells when compared to mural trophectoderm cells.
TS5: polar trophectoderm Present Spotted 3g There was punctate staining the cytoplasm. This staining exhibted a more apical localization in polar trophectoderm cells when compared to mural trophectoderm cells.
TS5: inner cell mass Present Spotted 3g There was punctate staining in the cytoplasm.
