mortality/aging
• at screening, only 10.6% of mice are homozygous, in contrast to expected 25%; no time point when lethality occurs is indicated

growth/size/body
immune system
N |
• normal distribution of leukocyte populations in blood and lymphoid tissues is observed; macrophages and dendritic cells are present in normal numbers in epithelial tissues and Langerhans cells display normal activation and skin emigration properties
• normal skin dendritic cell function in response to inflammation, normal peritoneal recruitment of inflammatory macrophages, and unchanged skin wound healing are seen in mutants

reproductive system
• litter size produced by homozygous pairs appear smaller than normal, with some pups dying between days 2 and 3 after birth
