behavior/neurological
• increased exploratory behavior
• travel a greater total distance in the open field compared with their wild type littermates
• travel a greater proportion in the center of the open field
• a greater number of light-dark transitions than their wild type littermates
• no significant difference for the total time spent in the dark
• lower acoustic startle compared to their wild type littermates
• no significant difference in prepulse inhibition (PPI) responses
• increased locomotor activity
• travel a greater total distance in the open field compared with their wild type littermates
• increased repetitive/perseverative responses
• bury significantly more marbles than their wild type littermates
• greater latency to hindlimb response in hotplate than wild type mice (p=0.076)
• increased audiogenic seizure susceptibility
• 18% of the 2-3 month old mice have audiogenic seizures, versus none in wild-type littermates

nervous system
• increased audiogenic seizure susceptibility
• 18% of the 2-3 month old mice have audiogenic seizures, versus none in wild-type littermates
• metabotropic glutamate receptor-dependent long term depression (mGluR-LTD) in hippocampal CA1 neurons is enhanced in the presence of anisomycin
