Figure 7. Pax2 and Sox2 proteins are required for HCNR 81675 enhancer activation.

Figure 7

(A) Scheme showing wild-type Sox and Pax2/5/8 consensus in the pou3f4 HCNR 81675 sequence and above each one, the mutation in the primers designed for site-directed mutagenesis of the Sox and Pax2/5/8 binding sites. (B–C) Transgenic embryos carrying GFP under the control of the HCNR 81675 enhancer. (B) GFP expression promoted by the wild type HCNR 81675 sequence. (C) GFP expression promoted by the HCNR 81675 enhancer harbouring the double mutation for Pax2/5/8 and Sox binding sites.
