• at 3 weeks of age, heterozygotes exhibit normal-sized eyes and have retinas with a typical layered structure of three nuclear layers, similar to those seen in wild-type mice
• heterozygotes display impaired differentiation of cone bipolar cells, as shown by marker analyses of adult retinas by immunohistochemistry
• in contrast, retinal rod bipolar cell differentiation remains unaffected
