Figure 6. Expression of Topaz1 mRNA in mouse gonads at different developmental stages.

Quantification of Topaz1 gene expression using quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis at several fetal stages (12.5, 13.5, 14.5, 16.5 dpc), after birth (1, 5, 10, 15 dpp) and in adult ovary (pink histograms) and testis (light blue histograms). The Actb gene was used as a reporter gene. Values indicated on the graph are means ± SEM of three independent RT experiments at each stage.
