Mice homozygous for a null allele show postnatal lethality, hyperammonemia, argininemia, altered plasma levels of other amino acids, enlarged pale livers, and abnormal hepatocytes. Mice homozygous for a different null allele show postnatal lethality, andincreased macrophage nitric oxide production.
