Fig. S2
Related to Figure 1: vISV sprouting is correctly patterned following disruption of Bmp signaling and Bmp signaling is unaltered in tmem2 mutants. A. Lateral view images of 3 dpf Tg(flt1:YFP)/Tg(lyve:DsRed) trunk vasculature in Tg(hsp70l:noggin3) positive and control embryos, heatshocked at 28 hpf for 1 hour, showing normal arterial and venous sprouting under both conditions. Scale bar = 30 μm B. Scatter plots showing quantification of sprouts from the PCV in Tg(hsp70l:noggin3) negative (n=9) versus positive (n=8) embryos (n.s= not significant). C. Whole-mount immunofluorescence staining for pSmad1/5/8 positive cells co-localised with ECs labeled in the Tg(kdrl:eGFP) line in sibling and tmem2 mutant embryos. Scale bar = 5 μm D. Cell counts of EC positive for pSmad1/5/8 show no significant difference between sibling (n=8) and tmem2 mutants (n=8). E. Fluorescence intensity of pSmad1/5/8 positive ECs show no significant difference between sibling (n=14) and tmem2 mutants (n=11). F. Fluorescence intensity of pSmad1/5/8 positive cells was also not significantly different in non-ECs between sibling (n=38) and tmem2 mutants (n=38). Error bars represent ±SD |
