Results
Specimen 1D: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: fungiform papillae Present 1D

Specimen S2J: embryonic day 16.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: fungiform papillae Present S2J
TS24: tongue epithelium Present S2J

Specimen S2K: embryonic day 16.5; Sox2tm1Lpev/Sox2tm3Lpev (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: fungiform papillae Trace S2K Expression was detected in the fungiform papillae, but there were far fewer fungiform papillae in the mutants compared to wild type.
TS24: tongue epithelium Trace S2K Expression was reduced in the epithelium.

Specimen S2L: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: fungiform papillae Present S2L

Specimen S2M: embryonic day 18.5; Sox2tm1Lpev/Sox2tm3Lpev (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: fungiform papillae Absent S2M The fungiform papillae are no longer morphologically detected in the mutants compared to wild type at E18.5.

Specimen 2G: postnatal day 0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: tongue Present Regionally restricted 2G Expression was detected in the fungiform papillae and the basal layer of keratinocytes.
TS27: fungiform papillae Present 2G

Specimen 2H: postnatal day 0; Sox2tm1Lpev/Sox2tm3Lpev (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: tongue Weak Regionally restricted 2H Expression was weak in the basal layer of keratinocytes, and the mutant tongue had no fungiform papillae.
TS27: fungiform papillae Absent 2H The mutant tongue had no fungiform papillae.

Specimen 3B: embryonic day 18.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS26: fungiform papillae Present 3B
