• as determined by marker expression, osteoblast differentiation is impeded compared to in wild-type mice
• at E13.5, cultured limb priomordial cells produce fewer bone nodules and more cartilage nodules than formed by wild-type cells

• at E15.5, mice exhibit less ossification compared to wild-type mice
• at E15.5, mineralization of the maxilla and mandible is minimal compared to in wild-type mice
• at E14.5 and E15.5, bone collars of ossifying skeletal elements, specifically long bones, are shorter than in wild-type mice
