cellular

absent brain ependyma motile cilia ( J:50025 )

• homozygotes exhibit complete absence of cilia in the chorid plexus

absent oviduct epithelium motile cilium ( J:50025 )

• homozygotes exhibit complete absence of cilia in the oviduct

absent respiratory motile cilia ( J:50025 )

mortality/aging

lethality throughout fetal growth and development, incomplete penetrance ( J:104135 )

• about 50% of homozygotes die prior to E18.5

respiratory system

lung situs inversus ( J:104135 )

• at E18.5, 10% of homozygotes display a reversal of lung laterality resulting in a single-lobed right lung and a four-lobed left lung

right pulmonary isomerism ( J:104135 )

• Background Sensitivity: unexpectedly, 60% of E18.5 homozygotes on a mixed genetic background involving C57BL/6 and FVB/N display four lobes in both lungs; in contrast, on a C57BL/6 background, 50% of homozygotes show a normal lung pattern while the remaining 50% show a reversal lung pattern

• right pulmonary isomerism is likely due to absence of Pitx2 expression in both lateral plate mesoderms at E8.5

digestive/alimentary system

abnormal stomach position or orientation ( J:104135 )

• at E18.5, 10% of homozygotes display a centrally located stomach

right-sided stomach ( J:104135 )

• at E18.5, 50% of homozygotes display a right-sided stomach

growth/size/body
