Fig. 2. Jun is dispensable for somitogenesis. (A,B) Expression of
Jun is detected in the most recently formed somite. (A) Wild-type
foetus with four somites; (B) wild-type foetus with seven somites. Arrowheads
indicate Jun expression in the somite; arrow in B indicates midline
expression of Jun. (C-L) Sox9 (C,D), Col2a1 (E,F),
Uncx4.1 (G,H), Myod1 (I,J) and Pax1 (K,L)
expression detected by whole-mount in situ hybridisation is comparable between
Jun+/+ control (C,E,G,I,K) and Jun-/-
(D,F,H,J,L) E12.5 embryos.
