Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Absent 2E E11 mut

Specimen 2F control: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11+, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Ambiguous 2F E12 ctrl

Specimen 2F mutant: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Present 2F E12 mut The onset of cell death occurred at E12 in the mutant pallium.

Specimen 4D ctrl: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11+, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: green - Casp3; magenta - H2ax (assay MGI:6400789).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Ambiguous 4D E12 ctrl

Specimen 4D mut: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: green - Casp3; magenta - H2ax (assay MGI:6400789).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Present 4D E12 mut The majority of H2ax-immunopositive cells in the mutant pallium were pyknotic, and 93.2% were also cleaved-Casp3-positive.

Specimen 6D: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Triple labeled: green - Casp3; magenta - EdU; yellow - TUNEL.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Present Regionally restricted 6D Immunofluorescence with cleaved Casp3 was used to mark apoptotic cells. TUNEL-positive cells marked cells in late stages of apoptosis. Of the cleaved Casp3+/TUNEL- cells in the E12 mutant pallium, 38% were also EdU+.

Specimen 6E: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Triple labeled: green - Casp3; magenta - Aurkb (assay MGI:6400916); yellow - TUNEL.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Present Regionally restricted 6E Virtually no cleaved Casp3+ cells were positively stained with Aurkb (2.1%).

Specimen S2B: embryonic day 13.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: magenta - Casp3; green - Pax6 (assay MGI:6400918).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: neocortex Present Regionally restricted S2B' , S2B''' , S2B The widespread cytoplasmic staining in Pax6+ radial glial cells was co-localized with cleaved-Casp3 staining.

Specimen S2C control: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11+, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: magenta - Casp3; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:6400921).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Ambiguous S2C ctrl

Specimen S2C mutant: embryonic day 12.5; Rnu11tm1.1Rank/Rnu11tm1.1Rank, Emx1tm1(cre)Krj/Emx1+ (more )
Note: Conditional mutant. Double labeled: magenta - Casp3; green - Tubb3 (assay MGI:6400921).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: neocortex Present Regionally restricted S2C mut In the E12 mutant pallium, the vast majority (93.4%) of the cleaved Casp3+ cells were pyknotic. Of the nonpyknotic Casp3+ cells, 4.44% were Tubb3-immunopositive, which was not significantly higher than the control.
