Results
Specimen 6A: embryonic day 12.5; Prrx2tm1Hubr/Prrx2+ (more )
Note: Tissue was embedded in hydroxyethylmethacrylate polymer.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: mandibular process Present Regionally restricted 6A Expression was found medially in the distal part of the mandible underneath the incisor buds and surrounding the mesenchymal condensations of the distal tip of Meckel's cartilage.

Specimen 6B: embryonic day 12.5; Prrx2tm1Hubr/Prrx2+ (more )
Note: Tissue was embedded in hydroxyethylmethacrylate polymer.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: mandibular process Present Regionally restricted 6B Expression was concentrated underneath the dental lamina, in a domain abutting Meckel's cartilage dorsally, and laterally from Meckel's cartilage in condensed mesenchyme, presumably the progenitor of the dentary.
