Ago2Gt(XE344)Byg mutation (1 available); any Ago2 mutation (54 available)
phenotype observed in females
phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
mortality/aging
• no homozygous mice are born; developmental arrest at ~E5.5 is observed

embryo
• development of homozygous embryos appears to have arrested before E7.5 (at ~E5.5)
• at E5.5, homozygous embryos are slightly morphologically misshapen compared to wild-type and heterozygous littermates

cellular
N
• DNA methylation in imprinted genes appears to be maintained with Eif2c2-deficiency
