Results
Specimen 1A: embryonic day 13.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS21: cap mesenchyme Present 1A Expression localized to stalks and tips of ureteric bud, nephrogenic structures, and uninduced metanephric mesenchyme.
TS21: pretubular aggregate Present 1A Expression localized to stalks and tips of ureteric bud, nephrogenic structures, and uninduced metanephric mesenchyme.
TS21: ureteric tip Present 1A Expression localized to stalks and tips of ureteric bud, nephrogenic structures, and uninduced metanephric mesenchyme.
TS21: ureteric tree terminal branch excluding tip itself Present 1A Expression localized to stalks and tips of ureteric bud, nephrogenic structures, and uninduced metanephric mesenchyme.

Specimen 1B: embryonic day 15.5 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS23: cap mesenchyme Present 1B Authors report a similar pattern of expression to that seen at E13.5. Expression localized to both ureteric bud branches and nephrogenic intermediate structures in a pattern consistent with expression in adherens junctions.
TS23: pretubular aggregate Present 1B Authors report a similar pattern of expression to that seen at E13.5. Expression localized to both ureteric bud branches and nephrogenic intermediate structures in a pattern consistent with expression in adherens junctions.
TS23: ureteric tip Present 1B Authors report a similar pattern of expression to that seen at E13.5. Expression localized to both ureteric bud branches and nephrogenic intermediate structures in a pattern consistent with expression in adherens junctions.
TS23: ureteric tree terminal branch excluding tip itself Present 1B Authors report a similar pattern of expression to that seen at E13.5. Expression localized to both ureteric bud branches and nephrogenic intermediate structures in a pattern consistent with expression in adherens junctions.
