Dnaaf2tm1.1(KOMP)Vlcg/Dnaaf2tm1.1(KOMP)Vlcg embryos are small at E7.5 and stall in development at E8.5. Gastrulation occurs but with left-right patterning defects.

mortality/aging
• embryos are grossly retarded and malformed by E8.5-9.5 and die at later stages (E11.5 and 13.5); no embryos are recovered at time of delivery
• Background Sensitivity: following breeding onto an ICR background, no newborns are obtained at N5 but embryos show better developmental progress and can be recovered at later stages
• homozygous embryos are recovered at E7.5 (15% versus expected 25%, n=88) but embryonic growth is stalled by E8.5

embryo
• at E9.5 and E11.5, embryos fail to establish a vascular network in the yolk sac
• at E8.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate in the embryonic portion
• at E9.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate at the tail region, unlike in control embryos
• embryos show pleiotropic defects
• however, gastrulation occurs with anterior-posterior specification
• embryos do not initiate embryonic turning
• left-right axis specification is disrupted likely due to a malfunction of nodal cilia (J:278736)
• at E8.5 and E9.5, Pitx2 (normally expressed in the left lateral plate mesoderm) is mis-expressed in the right lateral plate mesoderm in 25% of embryos (J:278736)
• at E9.5, Hand1 (normally expressed at the outer curvature of the left ventricle) is mis-expressed on the opposite side in all embryos (J:278736)
• however, Shh is normally expressed in the notochord at E8.5 and E9.5 (J:278736)
• left-right patterning defects are observed (J:279207)
• at E9.5, the posterior axis is shortened due to cells undergoing apoptosis at the posterior end
• embryos fail to progress beyond E9.5 (early organogenesis) (J:278736)
• embryonic growth is stalled by E8.5 (J:279207)
• embryos show a significant developmental delay as early as gastrulation stages E6.5-7.5 and are grossly retarded by E8.5-9.5
• embryos are smaller than controls at E7.5
• most embryos exhibit abnormal neural tube closure, esp. at E9.5
• although a visible node cannot be observed at E7.5, a morphological distinct node appears at ~E8.5 but is small in size and less defined relative to that in control embryos
• however, formation and extension of the primitive streak is normal at ~E6.5
• although Arl13b/T (brachyury) double-positive cells indicating cilia are present at E8.5, the node contains significantly fewer Arl13b-positive cells, consistent with decreased node size
• at E11.5, the tail bud region exhibits an abnormal cavity

growth/size/body
• embryos show a significant developmental delay as early as gastrulation stages E6.5-7.5 and are grossly retarded by E8.5-9.5
• embryos are smaller than controls at E7.5

cardiovascular system
• at E9.5 and E11.5, embryos fail to establish a vascular network in the yolk sac
• at E9.5, heart looping is reversed
• at E11.5

nervous system
• at E9.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate at the neural tube, unlike in control embryos
• most embryos exhibit abnormal neural tube closure, esp. at E9.5

limbs/digits/tail
• at E11.5, the tail bud region exhibits an abnormal cavity

homeostasis/metabolism
• at E11.5

cellular
• although Arl13b/T (brachyury) double-positive cells indicating cilia are present at E8.5, the node contains significantly fewer Arl13b-positive cells, consistent with decreased node size
• at E8.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate in the embryonic portion
• at E9.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate at the tail region, unlike in control embryos
• at E9.5, TUNEL-positive cells accumulate at the neural tube, unlike in control embryos
