Results
Specimen 4B left: embryonic day 13.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: retina Present Regionally restricted 4B left Expression was detected in a narrow stripe running horizontally across the full width of the retina.

Specimen 4B right: postnatal day 2 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: retina Present Regionally restricted 4B right Expression was detected in a narrow horizontal stripe in the periphery of the retina. It was not detectable in the central region.

Specimen 5E: embryonic day 11.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS19: retina Present Regionally restricted 5E Expression was detected in a stripe in the retina. Expression seems to straddle the ventral border of immunostaining for Aldh1a1 (Ahd2). Single labeled cells barely reach the vitreal margin.

Specimen 5G: embryonic day 13.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: retina Present Regionally restricted 5G Expression was detected in a stripe slightly dorsal to the optic disc and ventral to immunostaining for Aldh1a1 (Adh2). Selected cell labeling was restricted to the outer retina containing proliferating cells but absent from the inner region.

Specimen 6 Top left: embryonic day 8.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS13: eye Present Regionally restricted 6_Top left: E8.5 Expression was detected in the dorsal part of the early eye vesicle.

Specimen 6 Top right: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: optic vesicle Strong Regionally restricted 6_Top right: E9 Strong expression was detected in the dorsal part of the eye vesicle.

Specimen 6 Bottom left: embryonic day 9.0 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS14: optic vesicle Present Regionally restricted 6_Bottom: Cyp26 Expression was detected in the dorsal part of the eye vesicle. Expression overlaps with Aldh1a1 (Ahd2).
TS14: optic vesicle neural ectoderm Present Regionally restricted 6_Bottom: Cyp26 Expression was concentrated at the ventricular side of the neural epithelial cells.
