N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• no evidence of prenatal mortality
• 15% male mortality within the first 13 months of life, mostly from 4 to 7 months of age

growth/size/body
• some, but not all, homozygotes are much smaller than controls

behavior/neurological
• considerably less "freezing" than in controls when exposed to a conditioned (auditory) stimulus
• more time is required to find the platform in the Morris water maze test but a spatially biased search pattern is used
• shorter latency to first hind-limb response in a hot plate test

nervous system
• baseline hippocampal CA1 synaptic transmission is normal
• normal input-output functioning of CA1 presynaptic fiber volley
• normal paired pulse facilitation at interpulse intervals of 20-300 msec
• increased slope of the fEPSP
• lasting up to three hours after tetanization
