Assay
Reference: J:73775 Byrd N, et al., Hedgehog is required for murine yolk sac angiogenesis. Development. 2002 Jan;129(2):361-72
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:2177410
Gene symbol: Acta2
Gene name: actin alpha 2, smooth muscle, aorta
Antibody: Anti-smooth muscle alpha-Actin (clone 1A4)
Assay notes: The Ihh mutation was either generated in CJ7 or R1 ES cells and these were injected into C57BL/6 mice. Chimeric males were mated to C57BL/6, 129/Sv, or Swiss Webster females. Heterozygotes were maintained on a non-specified background.

Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: yolk sac Weak Regionally restricted There is staining around the blood vessels in the yolk sac; there is less seen in the homozygotes compared to the heterozygotes.
