mortality/aging
• lethality is observed with homozygous embryos comprising only 14.7% of total embryos collected between E10.5 and E13.5; resorptions make up 6.5% of total embryos recovered, while wild-type and heterozygous embryos are found at near-Mendelian ratios
• at E12.5 and E13.5, 2 and 1 homozygous embryos are recovered

nervous system
spina bifida
(
J:122795
)
• between E10-14.5, most embryos display spina bifida with or without accompanying midbrain/hindbrain exencephaly; 11/34 embryos have both exencephaly and spina bifida, while 2/34 exhibit only spina bifida
|
exencephaly
(
J:122795
)
• between E10-14.5, embryos display midbrain/hindbrain exencephaly with or without accompanying spina bifida; 17/34 homozygotes exhibit exencephaly only, with 11/34 embryos displaying exencephaly and spina bifida
