mortality/aging
• no mice homozygous for this allele were born from heterozygous intercrosses
• at E3.5 homozygous embryos are indistinguishable from normal embryos; however, no homozygous embryos were present at E7.5

embryo
• at E5.5, embryos presumably homozygous had no discernable epiblast
|
• at E5.5, embryos presumably homozygous had no extraembryonic ectoderm
|
• at E5.5, embryos presumably homozygous were made entirely of disorganized extraembryonic tissue
