pigmentation
• mice homozygous for this mutation have gray fur
• mice homozygous for the nut mutation, unlike homozygotes for most mutations at this locus, have black eyes
|
behavior/neurological
N |
• no neurological defects are evident in homozygous mutant mice
|
immune system
N |
• natural killer (NK) cells from homozygous nut mice exhibit normal degranulation following antibody stimulation of NKp46 or Ly49H receptors, after exposure to YAC-1 cells, or after PMA/ionomycin stimulation
