Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele show abnormal granule cell migration in the adult cerebellum and aberrant projection of mossy fibers in hippocampal slices. Mice homozygous for an ENU-induced allele are smaller and show granule cell migration defects and mild ataxia with incomplete penetrance.
