A grhl3 Exon1/Intron1 splice-blocking morpholino confirms specific targeting of grhl3. (A) Schematic of PCR-primers used to detect non-spliced reverse-transcribed mRNA product following block of grhl3-splicing. (B) The non-spliced grhl3 product was detectable by RT-PCR; this product was absent in MO:control injected fish. (C) The craniofacial phenotype seen following grhl3- knockdown was largely rescued by re-injection of morphants (at the 2-4 cell stage) with grhl3 mRNA, confirming target-specificity; ep, ethmoid plate; hs, hyosymplectic; mc, Meckel’s cartilage; pq, palatoquadrate; ch, ceratohyal; cb1-5, ceratobranchials 1-5.
