A myomaker promoter fragment with multiple E-boxes is sufficient to direct reporter expression in the fast-twitch muscle lineage. A: Schematic diagram of 5′ genomic region of myomaker. The black and white boxes represent Exon 1 and 5′ UTR respectively, while the red lines indicate locations of the 23 E-box sequences. B: The 3.278 kb promoter fragment is sufficient to drive GFP expression (detected with anti-GFP staining) in fast-twitch muscle cells (labeled with F310 antibody), as observed in both 20-somites (Top panel) and 2 d.p.f. embryos (Bottom panel). Nuclei and cell membranes are identified by DAPI and anti-β-catenin antibodies. Scale bar=20 µm. |
