Results
Specimen 5a +/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: utricle epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5a FN +/- Expression is at the apical surface of the hair cell layer.

Specimen 5a -/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8tm1Lfr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: utricle epithelium Absent 5a FN -/-

Specimen 5b +/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: saccule epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5b FN +/- Expression is at the apical surface of the hair cell layer.

Specimen 5b -/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8tm1Lfr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: saccule epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5b FN -/- Expression is perturbed at the apical surface of the hair cell layer.

Specimen 5c +/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: cochlea Present Regionally restricted 5c FN +/- Expression is at the basement membrane and at the apical surface of the hair cells.

Specimen 5c -/-: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8tm1Lfr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: cochlea Present Regionally restricted 5c FN -/- Expression in this mutant is the same as in wild-type.

Specimen not shown: postnatal; Itga8tm1Lfr/Itga8tm1Lfr (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: crista ampullaris Present Expression in this mutant is the same as in wild-type.
