Alleles
and
phenotypes 		All alleles(13) : Targeted(9) Gene trapped(4)
 
Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation die either neonatally or around 7 weeks. At 30 days, mutants show hypomyelination, PAS-positive material in the nervous system, and accumulation of ceramides in brain, liver, and kidney.
