Nullizygous mice die neonatally with no apparent oculomotor nerve pathology. Mice harboring a humanized amino acid substitution show uni- or bilateral ptosis, globe retraction, reduced numbers of oculomotor nerve and abducens motor neurons, and altered extraocular muscle morphology and innervation.
