Gene expression of mouse Mart genes in blastocysts and placentae during embryonic development from E8.5 to E18.5. (A) Mean expression of Rtl1/Mart1 to Rgag1/Mart9 in molecules per ng cDNA (molecules/ng cDNA) ± sem from 2 pooled samples of 10 and 17 blastocysts (E4.5). (B) Line diagram represents a logarithmic scale of the mean expression of Rtl1/Mart1, Peg10/Mart2, Rgag4/Mart5, Ldoc1l/Mart6, Ldoc1/Mart7 and Cxx1a,b,c/Mart8b,c,a in molecules per ng cDNA (molecules/ng cDNA) ± sem from n = 4 to n = 9 placentae for embryonic days E8.5 to E18.5. Congruent with blastocyst expression in 2A, the Zcchc5/Mart3, Zcchc16/Mart4 and Rgag1/Mart9 genes showed no expression from E8.5 and E18.5 placenta (data not shown). All absolute gene expression values are listed in Additional file 3: Table S3.
