Fig. 8. Specification of molecular markers in gastrula explants. A) Early gastrula, stage 10.25, were cut into the following halves: right or left halves, dorsal or ventral halves, and animal or vegetal halves. B) Late gastrula, stage 12.5, were cut into the following halves: right or left halves, dorsal or ventral halves, and anterior or posterior halves. In A and B explants were cultured until stage 41 and analyzed by RT-PCR for various molecular markers. Three explants were included in each reaction in triplicate; one representative sample is shown. A reaction without reverse transcriptase (2RT) is included as a control for DNase treatment. EF1a is included as a control for RNA recovery. Abbreviations: A, anterior half; An, animal half; carbA, carboxypeptidaseA; D, dorsal half; edd, endodermin, EF1a, elongation factor 1 alpha; L, left half; NCAM, neural cell adhesion molecule; pdx1, pancreatic-duodenal transcription factor 1; R, right half; P, posterior half; V, ventral half; Vg, vegetal half.
