mortality/aging
• after birth, mice failed to breathe or move and remained light purple in color
|
skeleton
• mutant neonates have abnormally curved spine and a thickened neck area
|
• neonates have an arched vertebral column
|
muscle
• most of the fibers are small and fragmented by loose and amorphous tissues
|
• myofibrils in muscle fibers are variable in size, and mostly smaller and fewer than in wild-type
|
• most of the fibers have nuclei centrally located
|
• myofibrils in muscle fibers are fewer than in wild-type
|
• in physiological salt solution, skeletal muscle from homozygotes does not respond to electrical stimulation or show a contractile response to depolarization of the sarcolemma
• contractions with extremely slow kinetics are observed in PSS in response to electrical stimulation, exogenous calcium and Bay K-8644 an agonist of voltage-gated calcium channels
|
limbs/digits/tail
• animals have thin limbs at birth
|
homeostasis/metabolism
respiratory system
• after birth, mice failed to breathe
|
behavior/neurological
• after birth, mice failed to move
