Reference: J:50754 Karolczak M, et al., Developmental sex differences in estrogen receptor-beta mRNA expression in the mouse hypothalamus/preoptic region. Neuroendocrinology. 1998 Oct;68(4):229-34
Assay type: RT-PCR
MGI Accession ID: MGI:2655811
Gene symbol: Esr2
Gene name: estrogen receptor 2 (beta)
Probe: ERbeta-pA, ERbeta-pB
Probe preparation: labelled with digoxigenin
Visualized with: Phosphorimaging
Assay notes: After amplification, the products were Southern blotted using a 30-mer. Quantification of the results of this assay are provided in Fig. 3. The probe used in this assay was 3' labelled.

Notes:
(a) Age of embryo at noon of plug day not specified in reference.
(b) Expression in both sexes was similar at E15. After, however, the levels in the males increased until birth and remained high throughout postnatal development, before declining in the adult. Such changes were not observed in females.
