mortality/aging
• 17 out of 25 mutants died before P60, with a median survival of 27 days after birth
|
• 8 out of 25 mutants died between between P14 and weaning at P21
|
behavior/neurological
• indications of forebrain seizures included splayed hindlimbs and vocalization before displaying straub tail
|
growth/size/body
• at 3-4 weeks after birth, mutants were smaller with 72-82% of the body weight of heterozygous or wild-type littermates
|
muscle
• indications of forebrain seizures included splayed hindlimbs and vocalization before displaying straub tail
|
reproductive system
infertility
(
J:94005
)
• both males and females are infertile
|
nervous system
• indications of forebrain seizures included splayed hindlimbs and vocalization before displaying straub tail
|
