mortality/aging
• mutant embryos begin to die around E11.5

embryo
• after E8.5 embryos fail to turn
• a developmental delay of 2-5 somites is seen
• mutant embryos are 60-70% of the size of somite number matched wild-type embryos
• at about E10.5 buckling of the neuroepithelium in the forebrain is seen

growth/size/body
• a developmental delay of 2-5 somites is seen
• mutant embryos are 60-70% of the size of somite number matched wild-type embryos

nervous system
• at about E10.5 buckling of the neuroepithelium in the forebrain is seen
• constrictions between the midbrain and caudal diencephalon are more prominent than normal
• at about E10.5 buckling of the neuroepithelium in the forebrain is seen
• the telencephalic vesicles fail to form
• proliferation of cells in the forebrain is reduced compared to wild-type embryos
• constrictions between the rostral and caudal diencephalon are more prominent than normal

embryo
• mutant embryos fail to turn
• growth arrest is seen around E10.5
• mutant embryos are smaller than somite number matched wild-type embryos
• at E9.5 the midthoracic region contains one third fewer cells compared to wild-type embryos, however the distribution of cell sizes is normal
