Mars2tm1.1(KOMP)Vlcg/Mars2tm1.1(KOMP)Vlcg mice exhibit embryonic lethality with embryos recovered at E7.5 but not at E9.5. Embryos are small and form a rudimentary egg-cylinder but a primitive streak and hallmarks of gastrulation are not seen at E7.5.

mortality/aging
• homozygous embryos are recovered in expected Mendelian ratios at E7.5 but arrest prior to gastrulation; no homozygous embryos are recovered at E9.5

embryo
• no morphological hallmarks typical of gastrulating embryos are observed at E7.5 (J:279207)
• embryos arrest prior to gastrulation
• embryos are much smaller than controls at E7.5
• a rudimentary egg cylinder is observed at E7.5
• no head folds are present at E7.5
• no embryonic node is present at E7.5
• no morphological evidence of primitive streak formation is observed at E7.5

growth/size/body
• embryos are much smaller than controls at E7.5
