Research Abstract

To analyze spatiotemporal aspects of the somitogenesis more in detail, we developed anovel experimental system describing spatiotemporal change of gene expression in thepresomitic mesoderm (PSM) with single-cell resolution in zebrafish embryo using noveldigital scanned laser light-sheet fluorescence microscopy. We successfully obtained 3Dtime-lapse images of zebrafish embryos including PSM at single-cell resolution. Theimages were recorded at 3 min intervals for more than 10 hours starting before the onsetof somite segmentation. To generate her1 reporter transgenic zebrafish,we in jected her1 reporter plasmid into zebrafish embryos.
