mortality/aging
• only ~5% of mutant mice are obtained at 2 weeks of age (i.e. ~20% of expected Mendelian ratio), with no differences in survival ratio after backcrossing to C57BL/6J or FVB for two generations
• all surviving mutants die before the age of 10 weeks
• most mutant embryos die between E10.5 and E13.5

cardiovascular system
• at 4 weeks of age, mutant cardiomyocytes exhibit swollen mitochondria with electron-dense bodies and disarrayed sarcomeres
• mitochondrial abnormalities precede any other subcellular changes in mutant hearts
• mutant cardiomyocytes show decreased copy number of mitochondrial DNA
• at E10.5, mutant embryos exhibit impaired trabecular formation
• at 4 weeks of age, surviving mutants have an enlarged heart
• at E10.5, mutant embryos display pericardial effusion
• at 4 weeks, mutant hearts exhibit mild interstitial fibrosis
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants display dilated ventricular chambers, impaired contractility and pressure volume loops suggestive of dilated cardiomyopathy
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants display impaired ventricular contractility
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants exhibit a mosaic pattern of cardiomyocyte degeneration, with a significant increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis
• at 4 weeks of age, surviving mutants exhibit features of congestive heart failure, i.e. enlarged hearts, pleural effusions and edematous connective tissues

embryo
• most mutant embryos are growth retarded, with their heart size remaining similar to that of E10.5 control embryos

cellular
• mutant cardiomyocytes show decreased copy number of mitochondrial DNA
• at 4 weeks, mutant hearts exhibit mild interstitial fibrosis
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants exhibit a mosaic pattern of cardiomyocyte degeneration, with a significant increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis
• at 4 weeks of age, mutant cardiomyocytes exhibit swollen mitochondria with electron-dense bodies
• mutant cardiomyocytes show progressive respiratory chain deficiency
• as expected, all mitochondrial respiratory chain functions remain at normal levels in skeletal muscle

growth/size/body
• at 4 weeks of age, surviving mutants have an enlarged heart
• most mutant embryos are growth retarded, with their heart size remaining similar to that of E10.5 control embryos

behavior/neurological
• at 3 weeks of age, mutant survivors exhibit reduced locomotor activity

muscle
• at 4 weeks of age, mutant cardiomyocytes exhibit swollen mitochondria with electron-dense bodies and disarrayed sarcomeres
• mitochondrial abnormalities precede any other subcellular changes in mutant hearts
• mutant cardiomyocytes show decreased copy number of mitochondrial DNA
• at E10.5, mutant embryos exhibit impaired trabecular formation
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants display dilated ventricular chambers, impaired contractility and pressure volume loops suggestive of dilated cardiomyopathy
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants display impaired ventricular contractility
• at 4 weeks of age, mutants exhibit a mosaic pattern of cardiomyocyte degeneration, with a significant increase in cardiomyocyte apoptosis
• at 4 weeks of age, mutant cardiomyocytes display disarrayed sarcomeres

homeostasis/metabolism
• at E10.5, mutant embryos display pericardial effusion
