• unlike mice homozygous for both alleles, mice heterozygous for Ptger2tm1Brey do not show any protection against tumor formation following a 15 week escalating light dose protocol

• after a modest UVR exposure (180 mJ/cm2) keratinocyte proliferation is significantly lower compared to wild-type controls
• however, keratinocyte proliferation following higher levels of UVR exposure is similar to wild-type controls
