Figure S5. Knockdown of PN1 delays gastrulation
Embryos were animally injected with 60 ng MOs at the 4-cell stage. Embryos are shown in
vegetal view, dorsal to the top, from the onset (left) to the end of gastrulation (right).
Vertically aligned embryos are time-matched.
(A-E) Control-MO-injected embryos undergo normal gastrulation, which results in full
closure of the circular blastopore.
(F-J) PN1-MO does not affect the onset of gastrulation at stage 10 (F), but causes a delay in
blastopore closure at subsequent stages.
Pictures are representative of a minimum of 20 analysed embryos. Image published in: Acosta H et al. (2015) Copyright © 2015.
