vision/eye
• slight delay in eyelid outgrowth and a reduction in cell proliferation in the upper eyelid epithelium at E13.5
• at E15.5 eyelids have a rudimentary periderm leading edge that does not extend over the cornea
|
• at E18.5 the leading edges are still too far apart to complete fusion over the central region of the cornea
|
• severity is reduced compared to mice homozygous for Osr2tm1Jian
|

• normal palate and tooth development unlike in mice homozygous for Osr2tm1Jian
