Phenotype Image Detail

Caption Gross phenotype of Tgm3tm1Sjo/Tgm3tm1Sjo (-/-) mice. Southern blot analysis of tail biopsies from mice born of heterozygous interbreeding showed that homozygous mutants were born at the expected Mendelian ratios (A). The pelage hair of homozygous animals at 4 weeks of age showed a distinctive wavy pattern (B and C). This became less obvious as the mice matured (D). While gross hair abnormalities disappear with time, irregularities in the vibrissae, which are evident perinatally (E, mutant; F, control at P5) persist throughout life. Expression of Tgm3 is observed in pelage hair in the medulla and in the inner root sheath (G).
