phenotypes
All alleles(4) : Gene trapped(3) Chemically induced(1)
Mice homozygous for a mutation of this gene exhibit marked hyperactivity, bidirectional circling and head-tossing. These behaviors are suppressed during sleep and nursing. Homozygous mutant males exhibit heightened male:male aggression.
