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:8270644
Gene symbol: Drd2
Gene name: dopamine receptor D2
Probe: Drd2 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Assay notes: Nolz1-/- mutant embryos, in which the coding region of Nolz1 has been replaced by beta-Galactosidase (also referred to as Nolz1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).
