Assay notes: Authors described this gene as an 'anchor gene', which was defined as "genes whose expression is absolutely specific to a given anatomical compartment and/or developmental stage" in mouse kidney development.
Results
Specimen Supplementary Table 1: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Note: Includes data from diagram in figure 5B.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: cortical early proximal tubule Present Section in situ hybridization confirmed specific expression in early proximal tubule. Validated anchor gene. Expression was restricted to early proximal tubule of stage IV tubules.
Specimen not shown: postnatal adult (more )
Note: Data from diagram in figure 5B.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: segment 1 of proximal tubule Present
TS28: segment 2 of proximal tubule Present
TS28: proximal straight tubule Weak
