Gene name: gap junction protein, beta 4
Reporter: lacZ
Antibody: anti-B-galactosidase
Results
Specimen 5B: postnatal week 4; Gjb4tm1Kwi/Gjb4+ (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Gjb4; red - propidium iodide.
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: olfactory epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5B Cells were dispersed throughout the epithelial layer. Quantification revealed about one-third (32.6+/-2.4%) of the cells were labeled.
TS28: olfactory epithelium olfactory epithelial supporting cell Absent 5B
TS28: nasal cavity lamina propria Absent 5B
Specimen 5C: postnatal adult; Gjb4tm1Kwi/Gjb4+, Omptm3Mom/Omptm3Mom (more )
Note: Double labeled: red - Gjb4 reporter; green - Omp reporter (assay MGI:7714737).
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: olfactory epithelium Present 5C
TS28: olfactory epithelium olfactory receptor cell Absent 5C Staining did not overlap with Omp-GFP reporter in the olfactory sensory neurons.
Specimen 5D: postnatal adult; Gjb4tm1Kwi/Gjb4+ (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Gjb4 reporter; red - Gap43 (assay MGI:7714738).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: olfactory epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5D Beta-galactosidase immunostaining co-localized with Gap43 immunostained progenitor cells.
