Homozygous null mice die shortly after birth, are cyanotic and exhibit respiratory distress. Severe bronchial epithelial dysplasia with abnormal glycogen-rich inclusions in the bronchial epithelium is observed. Homozygotes for a spontaneous mutation exhibit a mild disproportionate dwarfism. Most males are infertile.
