phenotypes
All alleles(3) : Spontaneous(2) Chemically induced(1)
Mice homozygous for the variably penetrant curly-tail mutation (ct) may show symptoms of cranial or spinal neural tube defects such as curly tails and/or spina bifida; mice with these defects may survive beyond birth. Homozygotes with more severe phenotypes display exencephaly and die in utero.
