mortality/aging

embryonic lethality during organogenesis, complete penetrance ( J:81402 )

• embryos first appear abnormal at E7.5 and fail to turn by E9.5

• no homozygous mice born

embryo

abnormal developmental patterning ( J:81402 )

• at E8.5, an abnormal anterior region is displaced outside the yolk sac

• at E9.5, both the anterior and ventral regions appear abnormal

incomplete embryo turning ( J:81402 )

• unturned at E9.5

abnormal mesendoderm development ( J:81402 )

• impaired formation of axial mesendoderm

rostral body truncation ( J:81402 )

• anterior truncation at E8.5

rostral-caudal axis duplication ( J:81402 )

• partial axis duplication

absent neural folds ( J:81402 )

• head folds are missing

abnormal neural tube morphology ( J:81402 )

• at E9.5, the neural tube appears deformed

abnormal floor plate morphology ( J:81402 )

• floor plate is duplicated at the anterior end

split notochord ( J:81402 )

• notochord is duplicated at the anterior end

abnormal primitive node morphology ( J:81402 )

• at E7.5, the node is disorganized and expanded, leading to secondary axis formation

embryonic-extraembryonic boundary constriction ( J:81402 )

• constricted appearance at the border between embryonic and extraembryonic tissue at E7.5

abnormal anterior visceral endoderm morphology ( J:81402 )

• impaired formation of anterior visceral endoderm

nervous system

abnormal neural tube morphology ( J:81402 )

• at E9.5, the neural tube appears deformed

abnormal floor plate morphology ( J:81402 )

• floor plate is duplicated at the anterior end

abnormal brain development ( J:81402 )

• at E8.5, the brain is poorly formed, although some neural ectoderm is observed

• brain is truncated in the anterior hindbrain or caudal midbrain

abnormal hindbrain development ( J:81402 )

• part but not all of the hindbrain missing

absent midbrain ( J:81402 )

• missing midbrain

absent forebrain ( J:81402 )

• missing forebrain

cardiovascular system

abnormal endocardial heart tube morphology ( J:81402 )

• at E9.5, heart tubes remain on the dorsal side of the unturned embryo and fuse only partially

cardia bifida ( J:81402 )

• failure of the cardiac mesoderm to fuse at the ventral midline

digestive/alimentary system

abnormal foregut morphology ( J:81402 )

• foregut fails to form properly

growth/size/body

abnormal head development ( J:81402 )

• at E8.5, an abnormal anterior region (head) is displaced outside the yolk sac
