N	normal phenotype

mortality/aging

premature death ( J:73074 )

• most mice that survive past weaning die by 3 months of age

postnatal lethality, incomplete penetrance ( J:73074 )

• fewer than expected mice are found at weaning

growth/size/body

decreased body size ( J:73074 )

• about 40% smaller than controls by 3 months of age

behavior/neurological

impaired limb coordination ( J:73074 )

• impaired hindlimb coordination is seen at 3 months of age

bradykinesia ( J:73074 )

• stiffness in the hindlimbs is seen at 3 months of age

integument

progressive hair loss ( J:73074 )

• loss of hair beginning on the dorsal neck

• hair loss is more severe than in mice carrying Gli2^{tm3.1(Gli2)Alj} and Gli2^tm2.1Alj

normal phenotype

no abnormal phenotype detected ( J:73074 )

• viable with no gross abnormalities

• unlike in homozygous null mice, at E10.5 the floor plate is present, interneurons are found in the appropriate location, and notochord regression is normal

• unlike in homozygous null mice, at E12.5 lung size is normal and the accessory lobe is present
