Figure 1. Identification of cranial-specific regulators by comparative transcriptomics.

Figure 1

(A) Diagram depicting dorsal view of chick embryo. (B, C) Embryos electroporated with FoxD3 axial-specific enhancers NC1 and NC2, active in cranial and trunk neural crest (NC), respectively. (D) Comparative transcriptome analysis of FACS sorted cranial and trunk neural crest populations identified 216 cranially-enriched genes. (E) Summary of gene ontology analysis for the cranial-enriched genes. (F) Enrichment levels of transcription factors expressed in the cranial neural crest. HH: Hamburger and Hamilton stages.
