Figure 4. The onset of ventricular cardiac expression for the MLC1v promoter detected in MLC1v::EGFP transgenic embryos. A-E: Ventral views of the heart-forming region of a single MLC1v::EGFP animal at stage 32 (A), stage 34 (B), stage 37 (C), stage 40 (D), and stage 43 (E). F, G: Left lateral views of the same tadpole at stage 37, depicting the whole animal (F) and detail of the head (G). H, I: The heart, dissected from a stage 48 transgenic tadpole (H, bright field image) reveals its chamber myocardium-restricted EGFP fluorescence (I, dark field image). H, heart; IH, interhyoid facial muscle; S, somites; A, atria; V, ventricle; OT, outflow tract. Copyright © Stuart J. Smith, , 2005 Image published in: Smith SJ et al. (2005) Copyright © 2005.
