Results
Specimen 4E: embryonic day 8.0; Egr2tm1Pch/Egr2+ (more )
Note: 7-8 somites. Double labeled: purple - Fst; turquoise/blue - Egr2 (Krox20; assay MGI:5436312).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: rhombomere Present Regionally restricted 4E Expression was detected in rhombomere 2 and 4.

Specimen 4F: embryonic day 8.0; Egr2tm1Pch/Egr2tm1Pch (more )
Note: 7-8 somites. Double labeled: purple - Fst; turquoise/blue - Egr2 (Krox20; assay MGI:5436312).
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: rhombomere Present Regionally restricted 4F Expression was detected in a continuous rhombomere 2,3,4 domain extending caudally to the rhombomere 4/5 boundary. The staining hid Egr2 lacZ staining in rhombomere 3 (see assay MGI:5436312).

Specimen 4G: embryonic day 8.0 (more )
Note: 6 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: rhombomere Present Regionally restricted 4G Expression was detected in rhombomere 2 and 4.

Specimen 4H: embryonic day 8.0; Egr2tm1Pch/Egr2tm1Pch (more )
Note: 6 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS12: rhombomere Present Regionally restricted 4H Expression was detected in all cells within the rhombomere 2,3,4 domain, but not in the prospective rhombomere 5 territory.

Specimen not shown: embryonic day 8.5; Egr2tm1Pch/Egr2tm1Pch (more )
Note: 12 somites.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: rhombomere 2 Present
TS13: rhombomere 4 Present
TS13: rhombomere 5 Absent
TS13: rhombomere Present Regionally restricted Expression was maintained in rhombomere 2 and 4. At 12 somites, rhombomere 3 has almost disappeared in the mutant embryos. Rhombomere 5 remained negative, and a low signal appeared in rhombomere 6.
