Cleft palate in Akap8Gt(XG068)Byg/Akap8Gt(XG068)Byg Fignfi/Fignfi mice

mortality/aging
• double mutants survive through birth, but ~50% die within a few hours of birth
• surviving mutants are generally smaller than littermates, do not nurse well, and gradually die prior to weaning, with very few surviving to 3 weeks (3/258)

craniofacial
• 50% of newborns show complete cleft of the secondary palate

respiratory system
• some newborns display gasping

digestive/alimentary system
• 50% of newborns show complete cleft of the secondary palate

homeostasis/metabolism
• some newborns retain blue skin color (exhibit cyanosis) prior to death

growth/size/body
• 50% of newborns show complete cleft of the secondary palate
