Results
Specimen 2A: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: Also stained for Fgf4 (assay MGI:1336680).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: forelimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2A Expression is in the zone of polarizing activity.
TS19: hindlimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2A Expression is in the zone of polarizing activity.

Specimen 2B: embryonic day 11.5; Alx4lst/Alx4+ (more )
Note: Also stained for Fgf4 (assay MGI:1336680).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: forelimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2B Expression in this mutant is the same as in wild-type embryos.
TS19: hindlimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2B This mutant shows ectopic expression in a small patch of anterior mesoderm that underlies the ectopic Fgf4 expression. Expression is also seen in the zone of polarizing activity.

Specimen 2C: embryonic day 11.5; Alx4lst/Alx4lst (more )
Note: Also stained for Fgf4 (assay MGI:1336680).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: forelimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2C This mutant shows ectopic expression in the anterior regions underlying the ectopic expression of Fgf4. This ectopic expression is later than that of Fgf4. Normal expression is also seen in the zone of polarizing activity.
TS19: hindlimb bud Present Regionally restricted 2C This mutant shows ectopic expression in the anterior regions underlying the ectopic expression of Fgf4. This ectopic expression is later than that of Fgf4. Normal expression is also seen in the zone of polarizing activity.
TS19: footplate mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2C , 2E Mutant embryos show ectopic expression in the mesodermal cells that underlie the cells ectopically expressing Fgf4.
TS19: handplate mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2C , 2E Mutant embryos show ectopic expression in the mesodermal cells that underlie the cells ectopically expressing Fgf4.

Specimen 2G: embryonic day 11.5; Alx4lst/Alx4lst (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: footplate mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2G There is ectopic expression in the anterior mesoderm in mutant embryos.
TS19: handplate mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2G There is ectopic expression in the anterior mesoderm in mutant embryos.
