mortality/aging
• mutants are born alive but die within a few hours of birth

growth/size/body
• positioning of stomach is randomized in mutants at birth whereas stomach is on the left side of abdominal cavity in wild-type
• mutants have 4 lung lobes on the right and 3 or 4 on the left

cardiovascular system
• at birth, apex of heart points to left, middle, or right of thoracic cavity instead of the left as in controls
• in embryos at 9.0 days, direction is randomized
• seen in most mutants at birth
• atrial septal defects are found in most mutants at birth
• major defect observed in all mutants is development of single common atrial chamber rather than separate left or right atria

respiratory system
• mutants have 4 lung lobes on the right and 3 or 4 on the left

hematopoietic system
• all compound heterozygotes have spleens that are reduced in size relative to controls

immune system
• all compound heterozygotes have spleens that are reduced in size relative to controls
