Results
Specimen 3c: postnatal adult; Odf2Gt(RRO072)Byg/Odf2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: seminiferous tubule Present 3c Expression is in round spermatids in the seminiferous tubule and in the region of the sperm tails within the lumen.
TS28: spermatid Present 3c Expression is in round spermatids in the seminiferous tubule and in the region of the sperm tails within the lumen.
TS28: spermatozoon Present 3c Expression is in round spermatids in the seminiferous tubule and in the region of the sperm tails within the lumen.

Specimen 3d: postnatal adult; Odf2Gt(RRO072)Byg/Odf2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: spermatozoon Present Regionally restricted 3d Expression is in a single spot within the cytoplasm and is not seen in the developing sperm tail.

Specimen 3e: postnatal adult; Odf2Gt(RRO072)Byg/Odf2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: spermatozoon Present Regionally restricted 3e In individual spermatozoa within the seminiferous tubule, expression is seen not in the tail portion itself, but within the cytoplasmic droplet attached to it.

Specimen 3f: postnatal adult; Odf2Gt(RRO072)Byg/Odf2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: epididymis Absent 3f No LacZ staining was seen within the caput epididymal sperm tails.
