Assay
Reference: J:290119 Soleilhavoup C, et al., Nolz1 expression is required in dopaminergic axon guidance and striatal innervation. Nat Commun. 2020 Jun 19;11(1):3111
Assay type: RNA in situ
MGI Accession ID: MGI:8270639
Gene symbol: Isl1
Gene name: ISL1 transcription factor, LIM/homeodomain
Probe: Isl1 cDNA
Probe preparation: Antisense RNA
Assay notes: Nolz1-/- mutant embryos, in which the coding region of Nolz1 has been replaced by beta-Galactosidase (also referred to as Nolz1<bgal/bgal>). Zfp503<tm1.1Bpb> (neo cassette removed) has been used in the annotations, but it could be Zfp503<tm1Bpb> (neo cassette still present).
Results
Specimen 3d WT: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: corpus striatum striatum neuron Present Regionally restricted 3d WT Isl1 Isl1 is a striatonigral projection neuron specific gene.

Specimen 3d Nolz1-/-: embryonic day 15.5; Zfp503tm1.1Bpb/Zfp503tm1.1Bpb (more )
Structure Cell Type Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: corpus striatum striatum neuron Weak Regionally restricted 3d Nolz1-/- Isl1 Expression was downregulated in the E15.5 Nolz1-/- mutant striatum.
