Figure 6From: Functional conservation between rodents and chicken of regulatory sequences driving skeletal muscle gene expression in transgenic chickensTransgene expression in the forming chicken embryo. Transgenic and control embryos were stained for of β-galactosidase activity. A) Transgenic and (B) control embryos at day 3 of development. C) Higher magnification of the embryo in (A) to show staining in the forming myotome. D) Transcripts from the endogenous locus at day 3 are revealed by in situ hybridisation for both MLC1 and 3. E) Transgenic and (F) control embryos at day 10 of development. Arrow, myotome.Back to article page
