mortality/aging
N |
• heterozygous intercrosses yield homozygous offspring in normal Mendelian ratios during embryonic development and in live births
|
growth/size/body
• at P2, mice are slightly smaller than wild-type and heterozygous littermates
|
limbs/digits/tail
• at P2, forelimbs are severely affected (rigid)
|
• at P2, hindlimbs are severely affected (rigid)
|
skeleton
• pups exhibit stiff joint contractures in the forelimbs and hindlimbs that impede body balance and normal locomotion
|
nervous system
• abnormal peripheral nervous system (PNS) development
|
• abnormal PNS myelination
|
behavior/neurological
cardiovascular system
N |
• mice exhibit normal heart morphology from E12.5 to P2
