Results
Specimen 5B: embryonic day 9.5 (more )
Note: The genetic background of the specimen was either wild type or heterozygous.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: optic vesicle Present Regionally restricted 5B Expression in dorsal domains in optic vesicles.

Specimen 5B': embryonic day 9.5; Gas1tm1Fan/Gas1tm1Fan (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS15: optic vesicle Present Regionally restricted 5B' Expression in dorsal domain in optic vesicle. No discernable difference between control and mutant eyes.

Specimen 5D: embryonic day 10.5 (more )
Note: The genetic background of the specimen was either wild type or heterozygous.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: optic cup outer layer Strong Widespread 5D High level of expression in entire presumptive retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) in control eye.

Specimen 5D': embryonic day 10.5; Gas1tm1Fan/Gas1tm1Fan (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS17: optic cup outer layer Present Regionally restricted 5D' Normal levels of expression in dorsal RPE region; reduced expression in ventral RPE region of mutant eye.

Specimen 5E: embryonic day 11.5 (more )
Note: The genetic background of the specimen was either wild type or heterozygous.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: pigmented retinal epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5E Expression in both dorsal and ventral RPE in control eye.

Specimen 5E': embryonic day 11.5; Gas1tm1Fan/Gas1tm1Fan (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: pigmented retinal epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5E' Normal levels of expression in dorsal RPE region; reduced expression in ventral RPE region. Authors report subdomains in ventral RPE: domain 2 is closer to midline and has less expression than domain 1 which is further away from midline.

Specimen E12.5 not shown: embryonic day 12.5; Gas1tm1Fan/Gas1tm1Fan (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: pigmented retinal epithelium Present Regionally restricted Authors report ventral expression is lost at E12.5.
