Expression of the paqr gene family in the zebrafish OM
(a) The mean expression values (Log(x+1) FPKM) for all of the annotated paqr genes in the zebrafish OM. Genes are sorted in descending order of expression. The error bars represent the standard error of the mean from the 3 biological replicates. (b) Cryosections of adult zebrafish OM were hybridized with cRNA probe for paqr5b. The sensory neuroepithelium is the area inside the dashed line, while the outside area is the non-sensory region of the zebrafish OM (arrowhead). (c) Expression of paqr5b mRNA detected by RT-PCR in several tissues. PCR amplifications were performed by using gene-specific primers. OM, olfactory mucosa; OB, olfactory bulb; G, gills; BL, barbels and lips; Sp, spleen; Br, brain. Scale bars, 50 μm.
