mortality/aging
N |
• survival of double homozygotes is normal
|
immune system
|
• erythrocytes show slightly increased susceptibility to antibody-induced lysis by human, but not by rat, complement compared to wild-type
• antibody-sensitized erythrocytes exhibit increased C3 deposition compared to wild-type cells
• mutant erythrocytes transfused into wild-type mice are more rapidly eliminated than controls indicating increased susceptibility to spontaneous complement attack in vivo, however cells are protected from removal when transfused to C3 deficient mice
|
reproductive system
N |
• when mating double homozygous females to Crrytm1Hmo heterozygous males the expected number of pups of both possible genotypes are seen unlike in the reverse situation when fewer than expected Crrytm1Hmo homozygous pups are found
