mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos exhibit complete lethality by E10.5

growth/size/body
• at E8.5-E9.5, homozygous embryos are developmentally delayed and exhibit a smaller body size than wild-type embryos
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are smaller than heterozygous and wild-type embryos

embryo
• homozygous embryos show severe defects in early embryonic development, including impaired neuroectoderm differentiation
• at E8.5-E9.5, homozygous embryos are developmentally delayed and exhibit a smaller body size than wild-type embryos
• morphological defects are already detectable at E8.5
• at E8.5, homozygous embryos are smaller than heterozygous and wild-type embryos
• at E9.5, homozygous embryos show a ~50% reduction in the proportion of neuroectoderm cells, whereas almost all remaining cell types remain unaffected, suggesting a defect in neuroectoderm cell development and/or maintenance
• at E8.5-E9.5, neural folds in the cephalic region are only just beginning to fuse along the specific closure sites, resembling the morphology of earlier (E8) stages

nervous system
• at E9.5, homozygous embryos show a ~50% reduction in the proportion of neuroectoderm cells, whereas almost all remaining cell types remain unaffected, suggesting a defect in neuroectoderm cell development and/or maintenance
• at E8.5-E9.5, neural folds in the cephalic region are only just beginning to fuse along the specific closure sites, resembling the morphology of earlier (E8) stages

cardiovascular system
• at E9.5, homozygous embryos show an increase in the proportion of heart field cells
