• Background Sensitivity: of the mutants that are born, most die prior to P7, with a few surviving past weaning, on the C57BL/6J background
|
|
• significant prenatal lethality on the C57BL/6J background, as only observe 7.3% of homozygotes at birth instead of the expected 25%

hematopoietic system
|
• the hematocrit of 8 week old mice homozygous for the deletion is about 75% that of wild-type mice
|
|
• blood of 8 week old mice homozygous for the deletion has a hemoglobin (g/dl) content about 65% that of blood from wild-type mice
|
|
• red blood cells of 8 week old homozygous deletant mice contain only about 41% as much hemoglobin (pg) as RBCs of wild-type mice
|
|
• the hemoglobin concentration in red blood cells from 8 week old homozygous deletant mice is about 82% that of wild-type mice
|
|
• 8 week old homozygous deletant mice have a mean RBC volume approximately half that of wild-type mice
|
|
• red blood cells of homozygous deletants vary in shape and size
|
|
• the platelet count of 8 week old homozygous mutant mice is about 3.75 times that of wild-type mice
|
|
• reticulocytes of 8 week old homozygous deletant mice contain less than half the cellular hemoglobin of those from wild-type mice
|
|
• in blood of 8 week old homozygous deletant mice, both the absolute number and the proportion of reticulocytes are significantly elevated over those in blood of mice with at least one wild-type allele
|
homeostasis/metabolism
liver/biliary system
|
• the liver iron content of homozygous deletant mice at 8 weeks is approximately 3-fold higher than that of wild-type mice
