Mouse lines carrying:
Npas3tm1Slm mutation (1 available); any Npas3 mutation (41 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• a short and irregular stride length is seen
• increased activity is seen in an open field test mostly in the outer rim of the test field
• mutants display a stereotypic darting behavior
• females fail to properly nest and mother their litters resulting in death of the pups by about 48 hours after birth
• mutants show a deficit in learned familiarization with no drop in interactions following reintroduction to a previously encountered individual

growth/size/body
• males and females are 20% smaller compared to wild-type mice
