mortality/aging
• Background Sensitivity: in the first generation of crosses to C57BL/6J 15% of heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele died by P2 with a further 16% dead by P16
• Background Sensitivity: in the second generation of crosses to C57BL/6J 47% of heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele died
• Background Sensitivity: lethality was reduced to 16% in crosses to 129S1/Sv

growth/size/body
• by 3 weeks of age heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele average 54% of the weight of wild-type littermates
• at weaning heterozygotes with a maternally inherited allele are larger than wild-type littermates
• from weaning to 18 weeks of age, heterozygotes with a maternally inherited allele gain weight more rapidly and at 18 weeks of age males and females weigh 26.7 +/- 4.3% and 63.7 +/- 8.3% more than wild-type littermates, respectively
• seen in heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele that survive past 2 days

adipose tissue
• in heterozygotes with a maternally inherited allele increased weight is partially the result of increased visceral fat deposition

behavior/neurological
• heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele are capable of suckling but consistently have less milk in their stomachs compared to wild-type littermates

reproductive system
N
• surviving heterozygotes with a paternally inherited allele are fertile

cellular
• the knocked in human imprinting center is unmethylated when maternally inherited unlike the wild-type mouse imprinting center

mortality/aging
• most heterozygous pups die within 14 days of birth but with removal of all but 1 wild-type littermate some survive to adulthood and are fertile
• Background Sensitivity: all heterozygous pups die within 7 days of birth when a heterozygous male on a 129S1/Sv background is crossed to a wild-type female of the C57BL/6J strain unlike the reciprocal cross where some heterozygous pups survive
• Background Sensitivity: survival is improved compared to heterozygous pups from crosses of heterozygous males (on a C57BL/6J background) to wild-type females of the C57BL/6J or DBA/2J strains
• Background Sensitivity: if the wild-type female crossed to a heterozygous male is an F1 cross of C57BL/6J and either C3H/HeJ, or FVB/NJ survival of heterozygous pups is impaired compared to crosses where the female is inbred C3H/HeJ, or FVB/NJ

growth/size/body
• as adults surviving pups are significantly smaller than wild-type littermates and never become obese

• mice that survive past 2 days display weakness
• heterozygotes are unable to support themselves on their hind feet and instead rest on their knees

growth/size/body
