hm1

• Allelic Composition: malf/malf
• Genetic Background: CXB5/ByJ-malf/J

• ♀: phenotype observed in females
• ♂: phenotype observed in males
• N: normal phenotype

malf/malf mouse with one misplaced ear and a twisted snout

craniofacial

asymmetric snout ( J:224286 )

• some of the homozygotes with a misplaced or malformed ear also have assymmetry of the snout that can be a very noticeable twist

abnormal outer ear morphology ( J:224286 )

• ear pinnae can be smaller than normal or misshapen

abnormal ear position ( J:224286 )

• one or both ears can be positioned lower than normal and which ear is affected is not impacted by the phenotype of the parents

• of 37 mutants 28 had the left pinna affected, 8 had the right pinna affected and 1 had both affected

lowered ear position ( J:224286 )

abnormal ear shape ( J:224286 )

small ears ( J:224286 )

hearing/vestibular/ear

abnormal outer ear morphology ( J:224286 )

• ear pinnae can be smaller than normal or misshapen

abnormal ear position ( J:224286 )

• one or both ears can be positioned lower than normal and which ear is affected is not impacted by the phenotype of the parents

• of 37 mutants 28 had the left pinna affected, 8 had the right pinna affected and 1 had both affected

lowered ear position ( J:224286 )

abnormal ear shape ( J:224286 )

small ears ( J:224286 )
