TS20: palatal shelf mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2D Expression in anterior palatal shelf epithelium and mesenchyme.

Specimen 2E: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: palatal shelf mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2E Expression in anterior palatal shelf, restricted to mesenchyme adjacent to the medial edge epithelium.

Specimen 2F: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: palatal shelf mesenchyme Present Regionally restricted 2F There is no expression in posterior region of palatal shelf, although expression is present elsewhere.

Specimen 3A: embryonic day 12.5; Msx1tm1Rilm/Msx1tm1Rilm (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS20: palatal shelf epithelium Present Regionally restricted 3A Authors state that expression is downregulated in mutant palatal mesenchyme, but remained unaltered in epithelium.
