Tedc2em1(IMPC)J/Tedc2em1(IMPC)J (-/-) embryonic phenotypes include failure to turn, kinked caudal neural tube, laterally splayed and open cranial neural tube, abnormal head and heart shape and cardiac edema.

cardiovascular system
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal heart shape

craniofacial
• at E8.5, over half of homozygous embryos have an abnormal head shape; by E9.5, most exhibit abnormally shaped heads

digestive/alimentary system
• when the notochord is absent at E8.5, the gut tube is abnormally proximal to the neural tube

embryo
N
• at E9.5, placentas are properly developed and comparable to those in control littermates
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit failure of turning
• by E9.5, all homozygous embryos are easily distinguishable from their control littermates
• however, homozygous embryos are normal at E7.5
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos lack a properly patterned ventral neural tube, as indicated by the absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos show absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit a laterally splayed and open cranial neural tube
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos show a kinked caudal neural tube
• at E8.5, the notochord is absent in some portions of the embryo

growth/size/body
• at E8.5, over half of homozygous embryos have an abnormal head shape; by E9.5, most exhibit abnormally shaped heads

homeostasis/metabolism
• by E9.5, the heart is often edematous

mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos are present in Mendelian ratios at E7.5-E9.5 but absent at E12.5

nervous system
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos lack a properly patterned ventral neural tube, as indicated by the absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
• at E8.5 and E9.5, all homozygous embryos show absence of FOXA2 in the floorplate
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit a laterally splayed and open cranial neural tube
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos show a kinked caudal neural tube
