phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
nervous system
• fraction of cells in cortex expressing HuC/D, a differentiation marker, is reduced in cultures after 4 days than in controls electroporated with a GFP vector
• the numbers of Cajal-Retzius cells derived from the dorsal telencephalic midline is decreased compared to in wild-type mice
• however, the number of Cajal-Retzius cells in the piriform cortex is normal

mortality/aging
• mice exhibit perinatal lethality identical to Neurog2tm1Fgu animals

nervous system
• in the mutant cortex, there are ventral-type neurons instead of only dorsal-type
• neuronal patterning is abnomal in the thalamus, indicating misspecification of neurons

nervous system
• neuronal patterning is abnomal in the thalamus, indicating misspecification of neurons; a population of ventral neurons in the dorsal tetncephalon are of dorsal origin
• the dorsal thalamus of double mutants is abnormal with an enlargement of the ventricular zone and a reduction in the size of the mantle zone
• neuronal patterning is abnomal in the thalamus, indicating misspecification of neurons
• at E12.5, there is an increase in the number of cells expressing a pan-neuronal marker compared to wild-type

cellular
• neuronal patterning is abnomal in the thalamus, indicating misspecification of neurons; a population of ventral neurons in the dorsal tetncephalon are of dorsal origin
