Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit defects in the semicircular canals of the inner ear and bidirectional circling behavior. Mice homozygous for another null allele display embryonic lethality with impaired cell migration during gastrulation. Homozygous KO also decreases apoptosis and increases proliferation of B cell stimulated by a single antigen.
