A) Phenotype of E17.5 embryos. Alizarin red/alcian blue–stained skeletal preparations below. Dsh/Dsh, Dsh/+;Shh
+/–, and Shh
–/– embryos show a nearly identical phenotype. (
B) Quantitative RT-PCR from WT and Dsh/Dsh RNA samples obtained from E10.5, E11.5, E12.5, and E13.5 embryos. Bars represent levels (± SD) of Shh expression relative to WT E10.5.
