Characterization of new eme enhancer motifs M1 and M2. (A) Schematic representation of the M1 and M2 sites in eme. (B–G) Wildtype stage 11/12 embryos (except for stage 14 in E) labeled for LacZ reporter (red) and Eve protein (green). (B) Wildtype eme. (C–G) Mutant eme with and M1a*, M1b*, M1c*, M1abcd* or M2a* site mutated. Note the dramatic expansion of reporter gene expression to both sides (C–F) of Eve or only anterior (G) of Eve.
