White spotting on the tail and toes of Aebp2^{Gt(BC0681)Wtsi}/Aebp2⁺ mice

digestive/alimentary system

aganglionic megacolon ( J:177673 )

• enlarged, green colored colon lacking neural crest derived ganglia

• mice show a 50-70% reduction in the density of ganglion cells in the section between the anus and the cecum

abnormal defecation ( J:177673 )

• seem to have difficulty passing feces

abnormal intestinal peristalsis ( J:177673 )

• of the feet and tail

• about 60% of heterozygotes show white toes on the hind limbs

behavior/neurological

decreased startle reflex ( J:177673 )

• about 70% of mice lack a brisk acoustic response

integument

non-pigmented tail tip ( J:177673 )

• white spotting at the tail tip

• length of the spot is increased in heterozygotes produced from crosses of heterozygotes compared to crosses of heterozygotes with wild-type mice

limbs/digits/tail

non-pigmented tail tip ( J:177673 )

• white spotting at the tail tip
