Phenotypes Associated with This Genotype

Genotype
MGI:3029468

• Allelic Composition: Sox8^tm1Weg/Sox8^tm1Weg
• Genetic Background: involves: 129S1/Sv * 129X1/SvJ * C57BL/6J

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

adipose tissue

decreased total body fat amount ( J:71578 )

• smaller adipose stores

growth/size/body

decreased body weight ( J:71578 )

• adult homozygous mice weigh approximately 30% less than controls

limbs/digits/tail

abnormal tarsal bone morphology ( J:71578 )

• reduced size of several tarsals was noted by P7; small size precludes the ability of tarsals to fuse in the adult

skeleton

abnormal tarsal bone morphology ( J:71578 )

• reduced size of several tarsals was noted by P7; small size precludes the ability of tarsals to fuse in the adult
