mortality/aging
• by E8.5, homozygous mutant embryos are in the process of resorption

embryo
• at E7.5, homozygous mutant embryos show defects in gastrulation and in the epithelial-mesenchymal transition required for normal formation of the mesoderm cell layer
• at E7.5, most mutant embryos exhibit cavities or lacunae in the mesoderm layer, and the mesoderm cells lining these lacunae retain the morphology of an ordered columnar epithelium instead of having the typical mesenchymal morphology of wild-type mesoderm cells
• mutant mesoderm displays an apical-basal polarity that is characteristic of an epithelial cell layer
• mutant mesoderm cells contain microvilli at the apical surface facing into the lacunae and display numerous electron-dense adhesive junctions between cells
• at E7.5, E-cadherin expression is abnormally retained in the mesoderm of mutant embryos, although at lower levels than those observed in embryonic ectoderm
• by E8.5, homozygous mutant embryos appear severely retarded relative to wild-type embryos
• at E7.5, homozygous mutant embryos are smaller than wild-type embryos
• although a posterior amniotic fold forms, no amnion is observed at E7.5
• no chorion is observed at E7.5

growth/size/body
• by E8.5, homozygous mutant embryos appear severely retarded relative to wild-type embryos

mortality/aging
• embryos survive as late as E9.5 when death occurs due to severe vascular defects

embryo
• numerous apoptotic cells are observed in the posterior bulge of allantois in mutant embryos at E8.5
• at E9.5, 46% of mutant embryos show reversed axial rotation compared to no control embryos
• at E8.5, poorly formed allantois with failure to fuse dorsally with the chorion is observed; there is a prominent dorsal bulge extruding dorsally. close to primitive streak

cardiovascular system
• at E9.5, some mutant embryos display reversed position of the atrioventricular canal and outflow tract
• in 23% of embryos at E9.5, there is a vertical heart tube with ambiguous looping direction
• at E9.5, in some embryos canal is reversed with outflow tract
• in 40% of mutant embryos, heart looping is reversed, whereas 37% show normal looping and remainder are ambiguous

cellular
• numerous apoptotic cells are observed in the posterior bulge of allantois in mutant embryos at E8.5
