mortality/aging
• exhibit a similar range and frequency of neonatal lethality as Cdontm1Rsk homozygotes
• exhibit a similar range and frequency of lethality as Cdontm1Rsk homozygotes

growth/size/body
• mutants either have a single, central maxillary incisor or no maxillary incisors
• maxillary incisors are sometimes absent
• dysgenesis of the philtrum
• lack a primary palate
• increase in presumptive mesenchyme between the nasal capsule and the oral cavity
• although medial nasal process (MNP) fusion occurs normally at E11.5, later stage embryos maintain an epithelialized furrow at the MNP midline and have a recessed inferior border
• agenesis or hypoplasia of the nasal septal cartilage
• agenesis or hypoplasia of the nasal septal cartilage
• nasal septum is reduced in size
• fusion of the premaxillary bone, resulting in severe pyriform aperture stenosis

craniofacial
• about 95% of mutants exhibit craniofacial abnormalities
• mutants either have a single, central maxillary incisor or no maxillary incisors
• maxillary incisors are sometimes absent
• fusion of the premaxillary bone, resulting in severe pyriform aperture stenosis
• dysgenesis of the philtrum
• lack a primary palate
