Reference: J:28182 Bergemann AD, et al., ELF-2, a new member of the Eph ligand family, is segmentally expressed in mouse embryos in the region of the hindbrain and newly forming somites. Mol Cell Biol. 1995 Sep;15(9):4921-9
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:4441593
Gene symbol: Efnb2
Gene name: ephrin B2
Probe: pELF2E
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with digoxigenin RNA
Assay notes: Expression analysis was performed using three different probes. Probes pELF2H (MGI:4441591) or pELF2I (MGI:4441592) may have been used. Authors report that all three probes gave the same expression pattern.
Results
Specimen 7A: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future prosencephalon Weak Regionally restricted 7A Weak expression within restricted regions of forebrain.
TS13: future hindbrain Strong Regionally restricted 7A Strongest expression in the anterior hindbrain at the level of rhombomeres 1,2,4 and 6; weak or absent at the levels of rhombomeres 3 and 5.
TS13: branchial arch Strong 7A
TS13: somite Weak 7A Weak expression in segmented mesoderm.
TS13: trunk paraxial mesenchyme Strong Regionally restricted 7A Two intense bands in the region of somite formation at the boundary between somites and presomitic mesoderm. Anterior band in or near the most recently formed somite; posterior band in or near the somite undergoing condensation.
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Absent 7A No expression in more posterior regions of of presomitic mesoderm near the caudal end of embryo.

Specimen 7C: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: future forebrain Weak 7C
TS15: future midbrain Weak Regionally restricted 7C Particularly in anterior end of the midbrain.
TS15: future hindbrain Strong 7C
TS15: somite Weak Regionally restricted 7C Weak expression in bands in more anterior somites of segmented mesoderm.
TS15: paraxial mesenchyme Strong Regionally restricted 7C Two bands of expression near the border between somites and presomitic mesoderm. Anterior band is narrower and more intense.
