Light microscopic images were captured with a TOCO digital slide scanner or an Axioskop microscope (Zeiss) equipped with an AxioCam HRc color microscope camera (Zeiss). Quantification of the stained area, basement membrane length, and band intensity was performed using ImageJ software (National Institute of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). For Alcian blue- and Masson’s trichrome-stained samples, the blue-stained regions were selected using the magic wand tool in PhotoShop CS5 software (Adobe Systems, San Jose, CA, USA) and converted to black with ImageJ software. The pixel area of the black region was quantified with ImageJ software. The volume of epithelial mucus was calculated by multiplying the blue stained area by the thickness of the section. Data are presented as the mean ± SEM of at least three independent experiments. A student’s t test or one-way ANOVA followed by a Tukey’s post-hoc test was performed for the statistical analysis of data using GraphPad Prism 5 software (GraphPad Software, San Diego, CA, USA). A value of p < 0.05 was considered significant.

Embryos dejellied in 1/3X modified Marc’s Ringer (MMR) with 2.5%(W/V) cysteine at pH7.8 and were microinjected with mRNA or morpholino in 2% Ficoll (W/V) in 1/3X MMR at the 4 cell stage. Injected embryos were washed and were incubated in 1/3X MMR until the appropriate stages.
For expression of X. laevis and S. purpuratus ENKUR-GFP, capped mRNA was synthesized using mMESSAGE mMACHINE SP6 transcription kit (Invitrogen Ambion). A morpholino antisense oligonucleotide (MO) against Enkurin was designed to block splicing (Gene Tools). Its sequence was 5′- AATGACTATCCACTTACTTTCAGCC - 3′. mRNA and MOs were injected into two ventral blastomeres or two dorsal blastomeres at the 4-cell stage to target the epidermis or the gastrocoel roof plate (GRP), respectively. Each mRNA or MO was used at the following dosages: GFP-Enkurin (60 pg), centrin4-BFP (40 pg), memRFP (50 pg) and Enkurin MO (20 ng). To verify the efficiency of Enkurin MO, MO was injected into the all cells at 4-cell stage and then RT-PCR was performed as described in the “Quantitative RT-PCR” section of the STAR methods.
Confocal images were captured with LSM700 inverted confocal microscope (Carl Zeiss) with a Plan-APOCHROMAT 63×/1.4 oil immersion objective. Bright field images were captured on a Zeiss Axio Zoom. V16 stereo microscope with Carl Zeiss Axiocam HRc color microscope camera.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
