reproductive system
absent sperm flagellum ( J:147965 )
• in some low-expressing chimeras
kinked sperm flagellum ( J:147965 )
• in 36% of sperm from low-expressing chimera and 38% of sperm from high-expressing chimeras
abnormal sperm head morphology ( J:147965 )
• disorganized mitochondria in low-expressing chimeras
abnormal acrosome morphology ( J:147965 )

• in high-expressing chimeras
detached acrosome ( J:147965 )
• low-expressing chimeras exhibit loose and broken in germ cells unlike in wild-type mice
decreased male germ cell number ( J:147965 )
• some mice exhibit generalized loss of germ cells at all stages unlike in wild-type mice
