Timed matings were set up with WT females x Rpl5+/− male mice. Pregnant females were killed at E12.5, and genotyping was performed on all embryos. Genotyping performed on 5 litters (n = 38) revealed 28 live embryos with no significant difference in observed to expected Mendelian ratio (χ2 analysis, P = 0.7). An additional 10 Rpl5+/− embryos (26%) were found to be dead or necrotic (dead embryos not included in the Mendelian ratio analysis ).
