Fig. 2. Tbx1/TBX1 suppresses NeuroD expression in the otocyst.
Lateral surface views of whole-mount hybridized embryos arrayed by stage,
genotype, and hybridization probe. All transgenic (Tg) embryos shown are of
Tg+/+ genotype. Mottled otocyst NeuroD signals are
epithelial; dense signals apposed to the otocyst indicate the VIIIth ganglion.
Asterisks mark the facial ganglion. Arrows in G,H,I mark heightened/ectopic
NeuroD expression in Tbx1+/ otocysts. p,
petrosal ganglion. m, Tbx1-positive mesenchyme. Scale bar: 100 µm
applies to all panels.
