mortality/aging
• dead at birth; pups are normal is size but are stillborn
|
muscle
• skeletal muscle exhibits chains of central nuclei and degenerating fibers, as well as increased central accumulation of NADH activity and acid phosphatase reactivity
• mutants exhibit increased number of internal nuclei in individual myofibers
|
• irregularly shaped nuclei, centrally located nuclear chains and degeneration of myofibers
• mutant mice have disrupted splicing of Mtmr1, Clcn1, and Tnnt2 in heart and skeletal muscle tissue reproducing the splicing pattern seen in myotonic dystrophy
