Results
Specimen 4A: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: Dorsal view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: embryo ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 4A Expression is resricted to a caudal domain comprising both ectoderm and mesoderm layers flanked by the neural folds. Expression is on the surface of the primitive streak.

Specimen 4C: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: Lateral view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: caudal neuropore Present Regionally restricted 4C Expression is enclosed ventrally by surface ectoderm, but remains exposed dorsally by the posterior neuropore.
TS15: neural tube Present Regionally restricted 4C Expression is enclosed ventrally by surface ectoderm, but remains exposed dorsally by the posterior neuropore.
TS15: tail neural plate Present Regionally restricted 4C Expression is enclosed ventrally by surface ectoderm, but remains exposed dorsally by the posterior neuropore.

Specimen 4E: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: Lateral view.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: tail mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 4E Expression is internalized once the posterior neuropore has closed.
