N normal phenotype
homeostasis/metabolism
• mice exhibit hypoglycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan compared to in wild-type mice
• however, glycosylation of alpha-dystrophan can be restored by ectopic expression of LARGE
• laminin-binding activity of alpha-dystroglycan is 50% of normal

nervous system
• a few mice exhibit a very small ectopic cluster of neurons migrating into the marginal zone are observed unlike in wild-type mice
• however, brain morphology is otherwise normal

muscle
N
• despite alpha-dystroglycan hypoglycosylation, no evidence of muscular dystrophy is observed at birth or in older mice
• even after exercise exhaustion, muscle cell membrane permeability is normal

cellular
• a few mice exhibit a very small ectopic cluster of neurons migrating into the marginal zone are observed unlike in wild-type mice
• however, brain morphology is otherwise normal
