phenotypes
All alleles(20) : Targeted, other(2) Spontaneous(14) Chemically induced(4)
A number of independent spontaneous mutations in this gene all show a similar dominant phenotype, with curved vibrissae and wavy hair. ENU mutants have also been characterized for abnormalities of keratinization in the inner root sheath of the hair follicle, including one recessive allele.
