Results
Specimen 2A: embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2b+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 2A Expression is present in three longitudinal columns on each side, as well as in migrating cells caudal to rhombomere 6 and axon outgrowths in rhombomeres 2 and 4.

Specimen 2A': embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2btm1Jbr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 2A' In the mutant, there are fewer expressing cells. Staining in the ventral-most column is preserved only in rhombomere 4. No signs of axon outgrowth or lateral or caudal cell migration are visible.

Specimen 2B: embryonic day 11.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2b+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: hindbrain Present 2B Expressing cells are present in rhombomere 4 and are migrating caudally through rhombomeres 5 and 6.

Specimen 2B': embryonic day 11.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2btm1Jbr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: hindbrain Present Regionally restricted 2B' In the mutant, expression is still present in rhombomere 4. However, the caudal migration of the facial precursors does not occur.

Specimen 4D: embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2b+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: rhombomere 4 Present Regionally restricted 4D Expression is present in the ventral region.

Specimen 4D': embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2btm1Jbr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: rhombomere 4 Present Regionally restricted 4D' Expression is present in the ventral region. However, in the mutant these cells are not differentiating into postmitotic neurons.

Specimen 7B: embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2b+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: rhombomere 4 Present 7B

Specimen 7B': embryonic day 10.5; Phox2btm1Jbr/Phox2btm1Jbr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: rhombomere 4 Present 7B'
