Estimate of Q and P for the entire proliferative population (PVE + SPP)
| (1) Embryonic days | (2) NP+Q | (3) NQ | (4) Q | (5) P |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| E12 | 17.23 | 1.94 | 0.11 | 0.89 |
| E13 | 25.90 | 4.96 | 0.19 | 0.81 |
| E14 | 19.40 | 6.52 | 0.34 | 0.66 |
| E15 | 18.21 | 10.73 | 0.59 | 0.41 |
| E16 | 18.68 | 10.60 | 0.54 | 0.46 |
The total number of cells in the 2 hr synchronous cohort, including those in the P and Q fractions (NP+Q) estimated by labeling protocol 1 in Figure 2 and the number of cells in the Q fraction alone (NQ) estimated by labeling protocol 2 are entered, for each of E12–E16, in columns 2 and 3, respectively. The Q fraction (=NQ/NP+Q, values in column 3 divided by those in column 2) and the P fraction (= 1 − Q) are entered in columns 4 and 5, respectively.
