phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
behavior/neurological
• males spend more time in the center of the open field than wild-type males; no differences are observed with females of either genotype
• in the Morris water maze probe test, females show significant impairment relative to controls; males show no difference
• males spend more time in the open center of the elevated plus maze compared to wild-type males; no differences are observed in female mutants or controls
• males and females exhibit significantly increased locomotor activity
• mice show less nest building behavior than wild-type during a 3 day observation period
• mutant males show decreased social interactions relative to wild-type with lower total number and duration of interactions with unfamiliar mice; females show no significant differences from wild-type

nervous system
• cholinergic and glutamatergic fibers from the medial habenula nucleus are disordered in males and females; immunolabeling shows irregular tracts in the interpeduncular nucleus
