Specimen Female ICM: embryonic day 3.5 (more )
Note: Presented in Fig. 2 graphs.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS4: inner cell mass Weak Inner cell mass derived cells showed low level biallelic expression.

Specimen Female E6.5: embryonic day 6.5 (more )
Note: Presented in Fig. 2 graphs.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS9: embryo Present Regionally restricted Female embryos showed three patterns of Xist expression, the proportion of which changed over time. At E6.5, 1. a small fraction of the cells showed low level biallelic Xist expression. 2. a slightly larger proportion of cells displayed differential biallelic Xist expression. 3. in the majority of cells, abundant Xist RNA was detected from only one locus.

Specimen Female E7.0: embryonic day 7.0 (more )
Note: Presented in Fig. 2 graphs.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS10: embryo Present Regionally restricted Female embryos showed three patterns of Xist expression, the proportion of which changed over time. At E7.0, 1. a small fraction of the cells showed low level biallelic Xist expression. 2. a slightly larger proportion of cells displayed differential biallelic Xist expression. 3. in the majority of cells, abundant Xist RNA was detected from only one locus.
