Alleles and phenotypes

All alleles(121) : Targeted(3) Gene trapped(118)
 

Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation exhibit severe blistering of the skin and other epithelia, absence of hemidesmosomes, altered laminin deposition in brain, and ectopic neuroblastic outgrowths on the brain and in the eye. Mutants die at birth.
