Results
Specimen 4a: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: mesenchyme derived from neural crest Present Regionally restricted 4a Authors report expression normally concentrated in cranial neural crest cells and their derivatives.
Specimen 4b: embryonic day 9.5; Tfap2atm1Will/Tfap2atm1Will (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: mesenchyme derived from neural crest Absent 4b Authors state homozygous mutation abolishes expression in cranial neural crest cells and their derivatives.
