skeleton
• supernumerary teeth lingual to the molars

craniofacial
• supernumerary teeth lingual to the molars
• at E13.5, palatal mesenchyme cell proliferation is reduced by 37% in the medial halves of the downward growing palatal shelves but not in the lateral halves, resulting in retarded, mediolaterally symmetric palatal shelves at E14.5
• palatal shelves are elevated but fail to contact each other at the midline at E15.5
• however, palatal outgrowth and initial downward palatal growth are normal
• homozygous mutant palatal shelves are separated from each other at E15.5, resulting in bilateral cleft of the secondary palate at birth
• palatal shelves appear retarded at E14.5 and are are still vertically oriented at E15.0
• bilateral cleft palate (J:149458)

hearing/vestibular/ear
• the tympanic rings are thicker in mutants compared to wild-type mice (J:94755)
• thickened (J:149458)

vision/eye
• delay in eyelid outgrowth and a reduction in cell proliferation in the upper and lower eyelid epithelium and mesenchymel at E13.5
• at E15.5 eyelids appear round and lack the periderm leading edges seen in wild-type controls
• by E18.5 a rudimentary periderm leading edge is present
• eyelids are not fused at E18.5

digestive/alimentary system
• at E13.5, palatal mesenchyme cell proliferation is reduced by 37% in the medial halves of the downward growing palatal shelves but not in the lateral halves, resulting in retarded, mediolaterally symmetric palatal shelves at E14.5
• palatal shelves are elevated but fail to contact each other at the midline at E15.5
• however, palatal outgrowth and initial downward palatal growth are normal
• homozygous mutant palatal shelves are separated from each other at E15.5, resulting in bilateral cleft of the secondary palate at birth
• palatal shelves appear retarded at E14.5 and are are still vertically oriented at E15.0
• bilateral cleft palate (J:149458)

growth/size/body
• supernumerary teeth lingual to the molars
• at E13.5, palatal mesenchyme cell proliferation is reduced by 37% in the medial halves of the downward growing palatal shelves but not in the lateral halves, resulting in retarded, mediolaterally symmetric palatal shelves at E14.5
• palatal shelves are elevated but fail to contact each other at the midline at E15.5
