Expression of URE2-lacZ reporter constructs in E11.5 mouse embryos. Lateral views of a E11.5 embryo from a Tg-MmURE2 transgenic line (A) and primary transgenic embryos for Tg-DrURE2 (B), or Tg-CmURE2 (C). Dissected brains were sectioned at the level of the telencephalon (D, F, H) and diencephalon (E, G, I) and detailed expression of the transgene was found comparable for Tg-MmURE2 (D, E), Tg-DrURE2 (F, G), and Tg-CmURE2 (H, I). Panels E-J are halves of transversal sections, dorsal is up, left side is shown in E, G, I, right side in F, H, J, sagittal plan figured in dashed line. d: diencephalon; drg: dorsal root ganglia; pt: prethalamus; t: telencephalon. Scale bars: 1 mm in A-C, 500 μm in D-I.
