Kctd5em1(IMPC)J/Kctd5em1(IMPC)J embryos exhibit head, heart, embryo turning and posterior cranial neural tube and yolk sac vascularization defects and are developmentally delayed.

cardiovascular system
• by E9.5, some homozygous embryos exhibit yolk sac vascularization defects
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit abnormal hearts
• at E9.5, some homozygous embryos show an abnormally looped heart
• at E9.5, homozygous embryos exhibit enlarged hearts
• by E10.5, all are dying or resorbed with enlarged hearts

craniofacial
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit branchial arch defects, likely related to abnormal hearts
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape

embryo
• by E9.5, some homozygous embryos exhibit yolk sac vascularization defects
• by E9.5, most homozygous embryos exhibit branchial arch defects, likely related to abnormal hearts
• by E9.5, homozygous embryos exhibit incomplete turning
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos are delayed
• however, all three germ layers are present at E8.5 and germ layer patterning is normal at E9.5
• by E9.5, a minority of homozygous embryos show partially open posterior cranial neural tube
• at E9.5, all placentas exhibit multiple labyrinth zone defects
• at E9.5, the Tfeb+ labyrinth trophoblast layer fails to expand
• at E9.5, all placentas exhibit a diminished Tpbpa+ spongiotrophoblast layer
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit abnormal yolk sacs
• at E9.5, Gcm1+ chorioallantoic branching is severely impaired
• at E9.5, all placentas exhibit an abnormal chorioallantoic interface (reduction in allantoic mesoderm)

growth/size/body
• at E9.5, homozygous embryos exhibit enlarged hearts
• by E10.5, all are dying or resorbed with enlarged hearts
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape
• at E8.5, a minority of homozygous embryos are delayed
• however, all three germ layers are present at E8.5 and germ layer patterning is normal at E9.5

homeostasis/metabolism
• by E9.5, homozygous embryos exhibit slight epicardial edema

mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos are present in Mendelian ratios at E8.5 and E9.5 but absent at E12.5; most/all homozygous embryos are resorbing or dying by E10.5

nervous system
• by E9.5, a minority of homozygous embryos show partially open posterior cranial neural tube
