normal phenotype
|
• mice are viable, fertile, grossly normal, and obtained in expected Mendelian ratios; adult mice have no overt kidney phenotype, showing no significant differences in kidney size, histology, glomerular size, or BUN levels relative to wild-type controls
• surprisingly, LC-MS/MS analysis of kidney heparan sulfate (HS) shows no alterations in the composition of disaccharides and 3-O-sulfated tetrasaccharides
