phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
vision/eye
• mice exhibit central fiber cells that are detached from the anterior epithelium and cells in the equatorial zone that are misshaped and disoriented
• cataracts are progress to large vacuoles in the center and to a stop of elongation in the equatorial region

nervous system
• mice exhibit an 11% increase in the number of Purkinje cells in the cerebellum compared to in wild-type mice
• Purkinje cells are often smaller than in wild-type mice
