Results

	Sample Information		Bands		Other Sample Information
Lane	Age	Structure	Size Not Specified (a)	Size Not Specified (b)	Amount	Genetic Background	Mutant Allele(s)	Sex
+/+	E13.5	TS21: embryo	Present	Not Applicable	20 µg; total RNA	Not Specified		Not Specified
-/-	E13.5	TS21: embryo	Not Applicable	Weak	20 µg; total RNA	involves: 129S1/Sv * 129X1/SvJ	Rarb^tm1Vgi/Rarb^tm1Vgi	Not Specified

Notes:
(a) Wild type band.
(b) The mutant band was reduced in both intensity and size. Authors indicate that it is likely an aberrant transcript with sequences encoding the first zinc-binding motif of the DNA-binding domain deleted. A non-functional protein would be the product.
