Gene Expression + Phenotype

Homozygous null mice show multisystem anomalies including progressive hyperplasia in the spleen and prostate, degenerative changes in the kidney, and increased sensitivity to carcinogens. In addition, mutant embryo fibroblasts are more prone to transformation by the Myc and Ras oncogenes.
