embryo
• labyrinthine precursors are absent
• giant cells are produced but the spongiotrophoblast lineage is absent
• marker analysis indicates that the fate of trophoblast precursor cells is shifted towards production of giant cells and away from development of spongiotrophoblast and labyrinthine lineages
• undifferentiated trophoectodermal cells are present at E8.0 but absent by E9.0 indicating a failure to maintain the multipotent progenitor cell population
• unable to derive trophoblast stem cell lines from E3.5 embryos or E6.5 extraembryonic ectoderm
• the spongiotrophoblast lineage is absent

mortality/aging
• live embryos were found in the expected ratios at all times in development but no mutant mice survived more than a few hours

craniofacial
• cranial defects are observed at midgestation stages
• the basioccipital bone is present but smaller in size
• the frontal bone is missing
• the interparietal bone is greatly reduced in size
• the parietal bone is greatly reduced in size
• the mandible is thickened
• the mandible is shortened
• the nasal capsule is missing
• reduced in size and striking decrease of neural crest cells
• all mutant mice had a severe cleft face and palate incompatible with survival
• the facial midline never fused

digestive/alimentary system
