Assay
Reference: J:42455 Dunwoodie SL, et al., Mouse Dll3: a novel divergent Delta gene which may complement the function of other Delta homologues during early pattern formation in the mouse embryo. Development. 1997 Aug;124(16):3065-76
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5295257
Gene symbol: Dll3
Gene name: delta like canonical Notch ligand 3
Probe: Dll3 cDNA2
Probe preparation: Antisense RNA
Assay notes: It is possible that Probe Dll3 cDNA3 (MGI:2446514) was used for this assay. Embryos were postfixed in 4% paraformaldehyde, 0.1% glutaraldehyde in PBS.
Results
Specimen 5A: embryonic day 6.5 (more )
Note: This is an early-streak-stage embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS9: embryo Weak Regionally restricted 5A Expression only in the epiblast.

Specimen 5B: embryonic day 7.0 (more )
Note: This is a mid-primitive streak-stage embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS10: embryo Weak Regionally restricted 5B Expression in the epiblast. Expression in epiblast appears considerably lower than that in the mesoderm.
TS10: embryo mesoderm Present 5B Expression in the nascent mesoderm as it emerges from the primitive streak.

Specimen 5C: embryonic day 7.0 (more )
Note: This is a full-length primitive-streak-stage embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS10: primitive streak Present Regionally restricted 5C Expression extends along its entire length but are absent from the node.
TS10: embryo Present Regionally restricted 5C Expression in epiblast cells adjacent to the primitive streak. Expression in epiblast appears considerably lower than that in the mesoderm.
TS10: embryo mesoderm Present Regionally restricted 5C Expression in the nascent mesoderm as it emerges from the primitive streak.
TS10: node Absent 5C

Specimen 5D: embryonic day 7.0 (more )
Note: This is a late-streak-stage embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS10: primitive streak Present 5D
TS10: embryo mesoderm Present Regionally restricted 5D Expression is restricted to the distal/posterior nascent mesoderm, fated to become paraxial mesoderm.
TS10: node Absent 5D

Specimen 6A: embryonic day 8.25 (more )
Note: This is a 8-somite embryo. The embryo is flat-mounted.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: primitive streak Present 6A
TS13: trunk somite Present Regionally restricted 6A Expression in the nascent somites.
TS13: future brain Weak Regionally restricted 6A Expression in the anterior neuroectoderm/presumptive brain region at a low level.
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 6A Expression in the presomitic mesoderm.

Specimen 6B: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Note: This is a 12-somite embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 6B
TS13: intermediate mesenchyme Absent 6B
TS13: lateral plate mesoderm Absent 6B
TS13: notochord Absent 6B No expression in axial mesoderm.

Specimen 6C: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: This is a 8-somite embryo. The embryo is flat-mounted, with surface ectoderm and endoderm removed.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Strong 6C Expression is highest in the presomitic mesoderm. Expression in the anterior boundary of the next somite that is to form.
TS13: trunk somite Present Regionally restricted 6C Expression in the anterior boundary of the nascent somite and the somite in the process of of forming or is to form. Expression appears to cease as somite mature.

Specimen 6D: embryonic day 8.75 (more )
Note: This is a 11-somite embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Strong Punctate 6D Expression in the dorsal region.
TS13: primitive streak Present 6D
TS13: trunk unsegmented mesenchyme Present 6D

Specimen 6E: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: This is a 25-somite embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: facio-acoustic preganglion complex Present 6E
TS15: glossopharyngeal preganglion Present 6E
TS15: trigeminal preganglion Present 6E
TS15: vagus preganglion Present 6E
TS15: future spinal cord Present Punctate 6E Along the length of the spinal cord.
TS15: nasal process Present 6E Expression in the nasal pits.
TS15: peripheral nervous system Present Regionally restricted 6E Expression in the sympathetic chain.
