Homozygotes for a null allele show altered anxiety, synaptic depression, LTP, impulsivity, social investigation, hyperactivity and prepulse inhibition. Homozygotes for a spontaneous allele show altered working memory. Different ENU mutations cause distinct depression and schizophrenia-like profiles.
