Results
Specimen 3B: postnatal day 6 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Vezt; red - Actin.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: organ of Corti Present Regionally restricted 3B Expression is at the base of stereocilia and along the kinocilium.

Specimen 3B': postnatal day 6; Adgrv1tm1Msat/Adgrv1tm1Msat (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Vezt; red - Actin.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: organ of Corti Present Regionally restricted 3B' Expression is absent at the base of the hair bundle but remains in the kinocilium in both outer and inner hair cells.

Specimen 4C: postnatal day 6 (more )
Note: Double labeled: green - Vezt; red - Actin.
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: organ of Corti Present Regionally restricted 4C Expression is at the base of stereocilia and along the kinocilium.
