000212 129P4.Cg-Axin1Fu/J
Repository-Cryopreserved
The fused mutation is dominant and generally more severe in homozygotes, but has highly varying penetrance in both the heterozygote and homozygote, to the extent that some homozygotes do not have an abnormal phenotype. Phenotypic traits of mice carrying the Axin1Fu allele include shortened, bifurcated, or absent tails, kinked tails with fused vertebrae, other asymmetrical fusions of vertebrae, axial duplications, and ribs fused at the proximal ends. Imperforate anus, anemia at birth, waltzing movement, deafness, and missing or abnormal kidneys have also been reported. Both heterozygotes and homozygotes are generally fertile although female carriers transmit with a lower penetrance than males do. (Reed, 1936; Dunn and Gluecksohn-Waelsch, 1954; Theiler and Gluecksohn-Waelsch, 1956.)
000017 B6.C3Fe-Avy/J
Repository-Cryopreserved
Homozygous (Avy/Avy) and heterozygotes (Avy/A and Avy/a) show considerable variation in appearance, ranging from clear yellow, to mottling with dark patches, to a completely agouti-like coat. The variation is strongly influenced by the agouti-locus genotype and strain genome of the dam. Homozygotes and heterozygotes tend to become obese, and the degree of obesity is correlated with the amount of yellow in the coat. Avy resembles Ay in causing greater tumor susceptibility and lower graft vs. host reactivity and higher hepatic malic enzyme activity. Homozygotes have a reduced humoral response to tetanus toxoid and decreased rates of carbon clearance as well as impaired mononuclear phagocyte function. The greater tumor susceptibility as well as several altered immune responses occur in Avy/a mice of mottled phenotype but not in those of agouti phenotype.
