Figure Caption

Fig. 9 Kif11 is required for secondary motorneurons but not primary motorneurons. (A–F) Visualization of primary motorneuron development in somite 11 over time using the Tg(mnx1:GFP) transgenic line. No difference in the formation of primary motorneurons was observed in STLC treated Tg(mnx1:GFP) transgenic embryos (D–F) as compared to control DMSO treated embryos (A–C). (G,H) Lateral view of the neural tube of Tg(gata2:EGFP) transgenic embryos at 48 hpf to assess secondary motorneurons in control DMSO treated (G) or STLC treated transgenic embryos from 5 to 48 hpf (H). (I) A significant decrease in GFP+ neurons was seen in STLC treated Tg(gata2:EGFP) embryos. Error bars delineate the standard error of the mean. Asterisks indicate a statistical significance (t-test, two tailed, assuming equal variances, p<0.05).
