Results
Specimen 4A: embryonic day 14.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: oral epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4A Expressed in murine medial edge epithelium and oral epithelium prior to the opposing palatal shelves contacted in the midline.
TS22: palatal shelf epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4A Expressed in murine medial edge epithelium and oral epithelium prior to the opposing palatal shelves contacted in the midline.

Specimen 4B: embryonic day 14.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS22: palatal shelf epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4B Expression remained in the midline epithelial seam of palate as palatal fusion process.

Specimen 4C: embryonic day 15.0 (more )
Note: Late E15.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: oral epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4C After palate fused and mesenchyme confluence, the expression is not found in the midline except in a murine medial edge epithelium island but persists in the oral epithelium.
TS23: primary palate epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4C After palate fused and mesenchyme confluence, the expression is not found in the midline except in a murine medial edge epithelium island but persists in the oral epithelium.
