Efficient Isolation of Novel Mouse Genes Differentially Expressed in Early Postimplantation Embryos
Authors:Berthold Bettenhausen  Achim Gossler
Abstract:Most genes with regulatory functions in embryogenesis are expressed in highly specific patterns, suggesting that expression patterns can serve as criteria to define potential candidates fur developmentally relevant genes. To isolate such genes, we selected and partially sequenced 80 cDNA clones from a 10.5-day mouse embryo library. Forty-one clones that represented novel mouse genes were analyzed for expression in embryos of the same stage by whole-mount in situ hybridization. A high proportion (24%) of these genes, including a homologue of the Drosophila Delta gene, were expressed in specific spatially restricted patterns, suggesting that selection based on expression patterns is a useful strategy to isolate novel genes that may play pivotal roles in mammalian development.
