Myo5ad-l/Myo5ad-l C57BL
Notes Myo5ad-l, dilute-lethal, recessive. Dilute-lethal arose in the C57BL/Gr strain. The color of Myo5ad-l homozygotes is identical to that of Myo5ad homozygotes, but dilute-lethal mice develop a severe neuromuscular disorder characterized by convulsions and opisthotonus (arching upward of the head and tail), and they usually die at about 3 weeks of age (J:12978).
