Heterozygous null mice may develop oligospermia and show premature death and increased tumor incidence. Homozygous null embryos are small and die post-implantation showing reduced inner cell mass outgrowth, mitotic defects, aberrant trophoblast giant cells, edema, hemorrhage and increased apoptosis.
