The lifetimes of Clomeleon were consistent along development, though a difference in the contributions of the individual lifetimes was observed. The percentage of the total population of cells in each class is shown (N%). The percentage of contributions of τ1, τ2, and τ3 are denoted as τ1%, τ2%, and τ3%, respectively. The mean lifetimes for the respective classes at each stage are denoted as τmean. Comparison of lifetimes and contributions obtained from COS-7 cells showed that they were similar to class III at DIV 14.
