Figure 4—figure supplement 2. Gene expression patterns at the Gli3 and Nkx3-2 candidate intervals. ; (A) Gli3 expression was determined using in situ hybridization. Gli3 was robustly expressed during limb development in both developing fore- and hindlimb buds, especially in the autopod (hand/foot plate). Lower panels show expression of Nkx3-2 and its neighboring genes Rab28 and Bod1l. The stronger expression of Nkx3-2 in the developing limb buds as well as the known role of Nkx3-2 in bone maturation (Sivakamasundari et al., 2012) strongly argues for Nkx3-2 being the gene underlying the selection response at the chromosome 5 locus. Scale bars: 1 mm for whole-mounts; 0.5 mm for limb buds. FL, forelimb; HL, hind limb; unless otherwise indicated by ‘L’, all images were taken from the right side. (B) We collected E12.5 embryos from each line and performed in situ hybridization to determine the sites and level of expression of Nkx3-2 and Rab28 in the Longshanks (right columns) and Control (left column) lines. Both genes are expressed in similar sites overall and specifically in the developing fore- and hind limb buds in the region of the presumptive zeugopods. These data indicate common sites of expression and rule out qualitative presence/absence differences in expression. Note that although the N1 enhancer pattern appear to differ from endogenous Nkx3-2 expression (Figure 4E, details in limb buds), it matches the pattern of early Nkx3-2 expression, detectable through the use of lineage-tracing via the combined effect of a Nkx3-2 Cre-driver line and the lacZ reporter line Rosa26R (see Figure 2B in Sivakamasundari et al., 2012).

Figure 1—figure supplement 1. Generation of Nxph4-βgeo knock-in mouse and characterization of Nxph4 expression by β-galactosidase staining and in situ hybridization. ; (A) Targeting scheme to generate Nxph4-βgeo allele. Doted lines indicate homologous recombination sites. ES cells with correct Nxph4-βgeo allele were obtained from KOMP. (B) Genotype analysis of tail DNA showed a 180 bp band from Nxph4 wild type allele and a 150 bp band from Nxph4-βgeo allele. PCR products were separated on 3% MetaPhor agarose gel. (C) A parasagittal section of an adult Nxph4βgeo/+ mouse brain processed for β-galactosidase staining, resulting in a blue reaction product where Nxph4 is expressed. Arrows indicate regions with strong Nxph4 expression. Scale bar: 1 mm. (D) Double in situ staining of adult wild type mice with probes against Nxph4, Vglut1/2 (excitatory neuron markers), and Gad1 (an inhibitory neuron marker). Nxph4 co-localized with Vglut2 in the olfactory bulb, vestibular nuclei, and cerebral cortex, but also showed overlapping signal with Gad1 in the vestibular nuclei. Scale bar, 100 μm. (E) β-galactosidase staining of adult Nxph4βgeo/+ mice shows Nxph4 expression in the glomerular layer (gl) and mitral cell layer (ml) of the main olfactory bulb, ventral cochlear nucleus (VCN), pontine nuclei (PN), and locus coeruleus (LC). Scale bars: Eii, 200 μm; others, 500 μm. (F) RNA in situ hybridization with a probe against Nxph4 detected Nxph4 in several regions of adult mouse brain. Scale bars: Cerebellum, 1 mm; OB (Olfactory Bulb), 500 μm; Amygdala, 100 μm; SFO, 200 μm; MPO, 200 μm; MB, 300 μm; PrS, 100 μm; AP, 100 μm.
