and
phenotypes
All alleles(5) : Targeted, knock-out(5)
Homozygotes for a targeted null mutation exhibit loss of normal airway hyperreactivity resulting from aeroallergen challenge, reduced numbers of CD5+ B cells in the peritoneal cavity at 2 weeks, and some altered responses to schistosomiasis infection.
