Find Mice Using the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
Mouse lines carrying:
Bace1tm1Psa mutation (0 available); any Bace1 mutation (27 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• 19% die within the first 3-6 days of birth and 24% die by 3-4 weeks of age

growth/size/body
• mice surviving to adulthood are about 30% smaller by weight than controls
• the 24% that die by 3-4 weeks of age die from a wasting syndrome, although overall immune defense is normal
• the 24% that die by 3-4 weeks of age are growth retarded

behavior/neurological

nervous system
• neurons do not process APP at the known beta-secretase sites and thus do not produce any measurable Abeta, although glial cells do produce Abeta
• significant shift in steady-state inactivation of the Na+ current toward more depolarized potentials, indicating that a larger fraction of Na+ channels is available at a given potential compared to wild-type
