Reference: J:46971 Loomis CA, et al., Analysis of the genetic pathway leading to formation of ectopic apical ectodermal ridges in mouse Engrailed-1 mutant limbs. Development. 1998 Mar;125(6):1137-48
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:1339653
Gene symbol: Fgf4
Gene name: fibroblast growth factor 4
Probe: Fgf4 probe2
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with S35 RNA
Visualized with: Autoradiography
Assay notes: All the specimens were discussed in the paper as in limb bud stages. Assay results are only annotated to forelimb buds, but they could also be annotated to the same limb bud stage hindlimbs of a later embryonic date (E10.5-11.5).
Results
Specimen 2K: embryonic day 10.5; En1tm1Alj/En1+ (more )
Note: Limb-bud stage (stage 3/4). There are discrepancies between the figure and the figure legend as to the genotype of the embryo.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: forelimb bud apical ectodermal ridge Present Uniform 2K Expression is throughout the dorsal and ventral halves of the apical ectodermal ridge.

Specimen 2L: embryonic day 10.5; En1tm1Alj/En1tm1Alj (more )
Note: Limb-bud stage (stage 3/4).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: forelimb bud apical ectodermal ridge Present Regionally restricted 2L In mutants, expression is restricted to the dorsal-most portion of the apical ectodermal ridge.
