Abstract excerpt
No turning (nt), a recessive lethal mutation causing left-right and axial patterning defects, was recovered in outbred CD-1 mice. Homozygous mutant embryos die at E11.5, exhibiting randomized heart tube looping and a failure to undergo embryonic turning. Previous studies showed notochordal defects associated with abnormal expression of HNF3beta, lefty, and nodal. To identify the genetic alteration underlying nt...
