Results
Specimen 4G: postnatal day 0; Atoh1tm2Hzo/Atoh1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: saccule epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4G Expression is present in the hair cells.

Specimen 4H: postnatal day 0; Atoh1tm2Hzo/Atoh1+, Gfi1tm1Sho/Gfi1tm1Sho (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: saccule epithelium Present Regionally restricted 4H Expression is present in the hair cells; they are disorganized in the mutant.

Specimen 4I: postnatal day 0; Atoh1tm2Hzo/Atoh1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: crista ampullaris Present Regionally restricted 4I Expression is present in the hair cells.

Specimen 4J: postnatal day 0; Atoh1tm2Hzo/Atoh1+, Gfi1tm1Sho/Gfi1tm1Sho (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: crista ampullaris Present Regionally restricted 4J Expression is present in the hair cells. Their appearance is very similar to those seen in wild type.

Specimen 5A: embryonic day 15.5; Atoh1tm2Hzo/Atoh1+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: cochlea epithelium Present Regionally restricted 5A Expression is present in the hair cells.
