N normal phenotype
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice have a loss of first-phase insulin release and a severely blunted second-phase insulin release during tolerance tests
• mice are glucose intolerant with blood glucose levels being significantly higher and remaining high longer than in non-transgenic controls

endocrine/exocrine glands
• the alpha cells are distributed throughout the islets instead of on the periphery
• total insulin content in the pancreas is about half that of wild-type pancreas while gene transcript levels for insulin are normal
• mice have a loss of first-phase insulin release and a severely blunted second-phase insulin release during tolerance tests
