phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• in a discrete T-maze paradigm with a 5-second delay, mice show reduced alternation indicating impaired spatial working memory
• about 25% of mice develop skin lesions caused by self-injurious, over-grooming behavior
• mice exhibit enhanced startle amplitudes, indicative of increased sensory-motor reactivity
• mice exhibit forepaw clasping/wringling behavior during tail suspension at a greater rate than controls
• activity patterns across the light-dark cycle indicate increased locomotor activity, which is more apparent during the light cycle
• in a mating paradigm, males initiate less social contact with an unfamiliar wild-type female than control males
• in a same-sex 3 chambered social approach/avoidance paradigm, males show reduced sociability compared to controls
• males emit fewer vocalizations during female social interaction than control males and the peak frequency of calls emitted is lower than in controls

hearing/vestibular/ear
• the phase-locked early auditory gamma-band response is reduced indicating deficits in neural synchrony
• mice show a 10-15% delay in the latency of the N1 component of the auditory-evoked response, however the amplitudes of P1 and N1 peaks are not different

N normal phenotype
growth/size/body
• slightly smaller than normal at birth
• weight difference persists to adulthood but the extent of the difference diminishes over time
• eventually mutants attain weights within the normal range

behavior/neurological
• increased acoustic startle response
• male response is enhanced by exposure to predator odor (soiled rat bedding)
• increased "ambulation" during habituation to a new environment
• treatment with Clozapine normalizes behavior at doses not affecting behavior of controls
• increased
• treatment with Clozapine normalizes behavior at doses not affecting behavior of controls
• all abnormal behaviors at least partially reversed by treatment with Clozapine
• do not sleep in contact with littermates
• no fighting by either males or females
• no aggressive mounting behavior by females unlike control females
• do not sleep huddled with littermates
• males fail to copulate with wild-type females
• reduced investigation of "intruder" animals
• exhibit escape behavior, avoid social interactions
• do not sleep huddled with littermates

nervous system
• deficient prepulse inhibition
• inhibition deficiency offset in males exposed to predator odor (soiled rat bedding)

reproductive system
• males fail to copulate with wild-type females
