Notes:
(a) Expression significantly higher at 8-cell and morula stages than at other stages.
(b) Authors state transcript was detected but was too low to be quantified by this method.
(c) Age assigned by curator based on morphological criteria supplied by authors.
(d) Expression detected after first cleavage.
(e) Expression levels increased gradually.
(f) Maximum expression levels at 8-cell stages.
(g) Expression significantly higher than at other stages.
(h) Expression declined rapidly to blastocyst stage.
