Reference: J:174498 Oldekamp J, et al., bHLH gene expression in the Emx2-deficient dentate gyrus reveals defective granule cells and absence of migrating precursors. Cereb Cortex. 2004 Sep;14(9):1045-58
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7606961
Gene symbol: Prox1
Gene name: prospero homeobox 1
Probe: Prox1 probe
Probe preparation: Antisense labelled with digoxigenin RNA
Assay notes: A signal amplification step (tyramide signal amplification) was used.
Results
Specimen 8A: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hippocampus Weak 8A Expressed in the hippocampal neuroepithelium.

Specimen 8B: embryonic day 14.5; Emx2tm1Pgr/Emx2tm1Pgr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: hippocampus Absent 8B

Specimen 8C: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: dentate gyrus Strong Regionally restricted 8C Expressed in the tangential migratory stream and in the tertiary matrix. The germinative ventricular and subventricular zones were no longer labeled.

Specimen 8D: embryonic day 18.5; Emx2tm1Pgr/Emx2tm1Pgr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: dentate gyrus Strong Regionally restricted 8D Expressed in ventricular and subventricular zones. No positive cells were seen at this age in the mutant radial migration stream, but formed abnormally large, strongly expressing groups in the tangential migration stream.
