phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
nervous system
• conditional mutants display neuron loss in the superior cervical ganglion (SCG), similar to that described in germline Egr3 mutants
• peripheral sympathetic target tissue innervation is abnormal in conditional mutants, closely resembling defects described in germline Egr3 mutants; innervation to the heart, spleen, kidney, and pineal gland is reduced

vision/eye
• sympathetic nervous system abnormalities like blepharoptosis are evident in conditional mutants, similar to defects described in germline Egr3 mutants

behavior/neurological
N
• mice lack the scoliosis and gait ataxia observed in Egr3 germline mutants
