Assay
Reference: J:48569 Grove EA, et al., The hem of the embryonic cerebral cortex is defined by the expression of multiple Wnt genes and is compromised in Gli3-deficient mice. Development. 1998 Jun;125(12):2315-25
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:2136883
Gene symbol: Ttr
Gene name: transthyretin
Probe: rat transthyretin cDNA
Probe preparation: Antisense RNA
Visualized with: Alkaline phosphatase
Assay notes: One- and two-color in situ hybridization was performed using digoxygenin- and/or fluorescein-labeled probes, detected with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated anti-digoxigenin or anti-fluorescein antibodies. Color reactions were carried out using different alkaline phosphatase substrates, resulting in different colored products as indicated in some of the figure legends.
Results
Specimen 4B: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: telencephalon Absent 4B No differentiated choroid plexus epithelium can be detected by Ttr expression in the medial wall.
