Gene Expression + Phenotype

Mice homozygous for a gene trap allele exhibit growth retardation associated with reduced decidual, spongiotrophoblast (due to reduced cell proliferation) and placental labyrinth. Male mice show atrophied testis and low sperm count, leading to impaired reproductive ability.
