cardiovascular system
• at E9.5, half of homozygous embryos show abnormal cardiac development
• some homozygous embryos recovered at E10.5 exhibit abnormal blood deposits, as observed in whole mount

craniofacial
• at E9.5, most homozygous embryos appear to have abnormal branchial arches
• at E9.5, nearly all homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape
• by E10.5, all embryos that are not dying show abnormal head shape

embryo
• at E9.5, nearly all homozygous embryos exhibit incomplete turning
• most homozygous embryos are developmentally delayed at E8.5
• nearly all are delayed at E9.5; by E10.5, those that are not dying are all delayed
• surprisingly, despite the overall delays, some embryos recovered at E10.5 can exhibit normal histological morphology
• a minority of homozygous embryos appear abnormal at E8.5
• however, germ layer formation and patterning are normal at E8.5
• at E9.5, most homozygous embryos appear to have abnormal branchial arches
• at E7.5 and E8.5, homozygous embryos are smaller than control littermates
• at E9.5, half of homozygous embryos show abnormal cranial neural tube closure
• at E9.5, half of homozygous embryos exhibit slight neural tube kinking
• by E10.5, all embryos that are not dying show slight neural tube kinks
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit multiple labyrinth zone defects
• at E9.5, the Tfeb+ labyrinth trophoblast layer fails to expand, remaining a thin layer
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit a diminished Tpbpa+ spongiotrophoblast layer
• at E9.5, Gcm1+ chorioallantoic branching is severely impaired
• at E9.5, placentas exhibit an abnormal chorioallantoic interface with a reduction in allantoic mesoderm and limited interface expansion

growth/size/body
• at E9.5, nearly all homozygous embryos exhibit an abnormal head shape
• by E10.5, all embryos that are not dying show abnormal head shape
• most homozygous embryos are developmentally delayed at E8.5
• nearly all are delayed at E9.5; by E10.5, those that are not dying are all delayed
• surprisingly, despite the overall delays, some embryos recovered at E10.5 can exhibit normal histological morphology
• at E7.5 and E8.5, homozygous embryos are smaller than control littermates

mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos are present in Mendelian ratios at E7.5 and E8.5, overrepresented at E9.5, in part due to a litter of 8 with 7 mutants, but absent at E12.5; many homozygous embryos are dying at E10.5

nervous system
• at E9.5, half of homozygous embryos show abnormal cranial neural tube closure
• at E9.5, half of homozygous embryos exhibit slight neural tube kinking
• by E10.5, all embryos that are not dying show slight neural tube kinks
• some homozygous embryos recovered at E10.5 exhibit an abnormal forebrain
