mortality/aging
N |
• double mutants show rescue of lethality observed for Dnajc5-deficient mice; mice live >15 months
|
behavior/neurological
N |
• transgenic Dnajc5-deficient mice have locomotor activity and righting ability like wild-type mice at all ages; ataxia is suppressed in mice
|
• in a grip test, mice can grip the mesh for the 2 minute duration of the test up to 30 days of age; at this time point, their eyesight begins to deteriorate and performance starts to decline
|
nervous system
N |
• gliosis and neuron degeneration observed in Dnajc5-null mice are rescued by transgene expression
|
• mice show considerable photoreceptor degeneration
|
vision/eye
• mice show considerable photoreceptor degeneration
