Results
Specimen 4C: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Note: Data for +/+ or +/- embryos were indistinguishable and are referred to as 'wild-type'; thus the pictured specimen could have been a heterozygous animal.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 4C Expression is present in the neurectoderm at the caudal end of the midbrain.

Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted 4C' Expression is present in the neurectoderm at the caudal end of the midbrain.

Specimen Heterozygote: embryonic day 8.5; Tcf7l1tm2Efu/Tcf7l1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Present Regionally restricted Expression is present in the neurectoderm at the caudal end of the midbrain.

Specimen 4D: embryonic day 8.5; Tcf7l1tm2Efu/Tcf7l1tm2Efu (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: future midbrain Present 4D In the mutant, expression is expanded rostrally and its distance from the rostral tip of the embryo is shortened, consistent with a severe reduction of the forebrain.
