Mouse lines carrying:
Achetm1Loc mutation (1 available); any Ache mutation (30 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• pups die during the postnatal period between P13-21; none survive beyond 21 days

growth/size/body
• lack of maturation of the ear structure
• weight is lower than wild-type from P2 onward, with a clear difference noted at 7 days after birth; weights decreased 1-2 days prior to death at ~P14

behavior/neurological
• no righting reflex develops even by 21 days of age, whereas wild-type controls show reflex by 8 days of age
• fine motor tremor observed at 3-4 days of age
• splayed feet and legs
• null mice are born at frequency of 20% instead of expected 25%
• null mice exhibit continuous circling movement upon separation from the nest

nervous system
• cerebral hemispheres are transulucent in 12-day old mice, whereas they are opaque in wild-type littermates

hearing/vestibular/ear
• lack of maturation of the ear structure

vision/eye
• failure of eyelids to open; sealed even on P21, while littermates open on P8 to 12

craniofacial
• lack of maturation of the ear structure

mortality/aging
• CPO-treated mice die within 11 minutes unlike simiarly treated wild-type mice

homeostasis/metabolism
• donepezil-treated mice exhibit a thick exudates forming over the eyes unlike similarly treated wild-type mice but similar to homozygous mice under stress
• however, donepezil-treated mice do not exhibit a change in body temperature
• CPO-treated mice die within 11 minutes unlike simiarly treated wild-type mice
• CPO-treated mice exhibit cholinergic symptoms and die within 11 minutes unlike simialrly treated wild-type mice
