Phenotype Image Detail
Image
Caption A: Wild type (left) and Tfap2aMhdador/Tfap2aMhdador (right) embryos at 18.5. The homozygous mutant embryos have smaller eyes (arrow) and abnormal facial structure in the form of a shorter and/or narrower snout. B-E: H & E staining of sections of E18.5 eyes from wild type (B), Tfap2aMhdador/Tcfap2a+ (C) and homozygous embryos (D & E). Homozygous mice show variability in ocular phenotype with adhesion of a smaller lens to the cornea (col) (D) or absencce of lens (E). The neuroretina (nr) is folded in some embryos (E) and occasionally anterior eye structures, such as the iris, and ciliary body, fail to form and instead devekop into a neuroretina (nr, E).
