N normal phenotype
muscle
• many small-diameter, centrally nucleated fibers are found in the muscles, particularly in the triceps, hamstrings, quadriceps, soleus, psoas, and gastrocnemius, with the diaphragm, deltoid, tibialis anterior, and biceps brachii being less affected
• muscles are smaller than normal, with this transgenic line having a milder phenotype than other lines from separate founders using this transgenic construct

behavior/neurological
• waddling gait
