Reference: J:122989 Visel A, et al., GenePaint.org: an atlas of gene expression patterns in the mouse embryo. Nucleic Acids Res. 2004 Jan 1;32(Database issue):D552-6
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:5421413
Gene symbol: Mgp
Gene name: matrix Gla protein
Probe: MH1108 probe 930
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with digoxigenin RNA
Visualized with: Alkaline phosphatase
Assay notes: Cryosections of fresh frozen material were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20 min. before further processing. A tyramide-biotin/streptavidin amplification step was included in the in situ hybridization procedure. These data were downloaded from GenePaint.org on 1/30/12.
