phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• generally found by 2 weeks of age
• beginning after 2 weeks of age and progressing to paralysis
• although no demyelination was evident in nerve cross-sections and conduction velocities were normal at 16 days of age, homozygotes display tremors, ataxia, and progressive paralysis until death by 21 to 24 days of age

growth/size/body
• generally evident by 2 weeks of age

mortality/aging
• homozygotes die between 21 and 24 days of age
