phenotypes
All alleles(23) : Targeted(20) Spontaneous(2) Chemically induced(1)
 
Mutations at this locus primarily affect the immune system, causing increased susceptibility to infection, failure to form splenic B-cell follicles, increased inflammation and impaired contact hypersensitivity. Homozygotes also may show metabolic defects.
