Abstract

RNA X DNA in situ hybridization revealed a high level of ETn ("early transposon") transcripts in the pluripotent cell lineage of the 3.5- to 7.5-day mouse embryo. Some extra-embryonic ectoderm derivatives also show a high level of ETn transcripts at these stages. Older embryos (8.5 days and later) have a uniform low level of ETn transcripts.
