Fig. 4. Generation of Hes1 cKO mice. (A) Strategy for
generation of Hes1 cKO mice. (B) Genomic DNA from
drug-resistant cells was digested with HindIII and analyzed by
Southern blot using a 0.6-kb HindIII-BamHI fragment as a
5'-probe, which detected wild-type and floxed fragments (6.0 kb),
floxed-neo (7.8 kb) and deleted fragments (3.8 kb). (C-E)
β-Galactosidase activity in the forebrain of Emx1-Cre;R26R mice at
E10.5-E12.5. (F-O) Hes1 and Hes5 were expressed in
the dorsal telencephalon of the control (Bmp4+, F,L) at
E10.5 and E11.5 (G,H,M). In Hes1 cKO mice, Hes1 expression
was downregulated around E10.5 (J, asterisk) and was lost by E11.5 (O,
asterisk). Insets of M and O show immunohistochemistry for Hes1. Hes1 protein
expression was lost in Hes1 cKO mice by E11.5. Hes5
expression was upregulated in Hes1 cKO mice (K). di, diencephalon;
tel, telencephalon; hem, cortical hem. Scale bars: 100 µm in C,D,F-O; 200
µm in E.
