normal phenotype
• mice exhibit normal body weights and do not develop hydrocephalus, unlike males carrying the Cetn2tm1.1Wbae allele
• mice are rescued from the OSN ciliary trafficking defect, as shown by normal ciliary localizations of two major transmembrane signaling proteins (ACIII and CNGA2), and a peripheral membrane-associated protein

cellular
• very few cells from E9.0 embryos show centrioles (2% compared to 98% in wild-type embryos)
• in cultured ES cells almost half of all centrioles are abnormal, about one third have normal-like centrioles, and the rest have thread-like structures
