Abstract:
RNA in situ hybridization is a powerful technique used to identify the spatial localization of a specific RNA in a tissue section or whole tissue. In this protocol, we describe a reliable method for two-color in situ hybridization that can be used to accurately assess the expression of multiple genes with contrasting or overlapping expression patterns in whole mouse embryos.
