    APF
Homozygotes for a null allele die prematurely exhibiting hydroencephaly and abnormal cellular replicative senescence. Homozygotes for another null allele show resistance to EAE due to reduced leukocyte recruitment into lesion sites, and may display stunted growth, hydroencephaly, and ataxia.
