vision/eye

abnormal eye electrophysiology ( J:98867 )

• electroretinograms (ERGs) of dark-adapted 12 week old mutant mice lack the rod b-wave and scotopic threshold response (STR), although the cone electroretinograms are of high amplitude

vision/eye

abnormal eye physiology ( J:152828 )

• ON retinal ganglion cell responses are delayed compared to in wild-type mice

• the spatial frequency cutoffs are lower than in wild-type mice

• however, peak contrast sensitivity is normal

abnormal cone electrophysiology ( J:152828 )

• photopic b-waves are absent

• however, a-waves are normal

abnormal rod electrophysiology ( J:152828 )

• scotopic b-waves are absent

• mice lack a scotopic threshold response unlike wild-type mice

• however, a-waves are normal
