Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit agenesis of the adrenal glands and gonads, defects of the ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus, impaired pituitary gonadotroph function, and neonatal lethality. Homozygosity for a critical point mutation results in absence of adrenal glands, sex reversal in males and early postnatal lethality.
