002048 B6 x C57BLKS-m Leprdb Myo15sh2-J/J
Repository-Cryopreserved
Mice homozygous for the shaker 2 Jackson spontaneous mutation (Myo15sh2-J) are viable and fertile, showing only a slight reduction in both compared to wildtype mice. The shaker 2 Jackson remutation is not visibly different from the original shaker 2 (Myo15sh2, Stock No. 000109). Homozygous mutant mice of both alleles display a phenotype very similar to the behavior and pathology to shaker-1 (Myo7ash1) with the exception that the abnormalities are observed a little earlier in shaker 2 mice. This strain is also carrying the misty (m) and diabetes (Leprdb) spontaneous mutations.

Repository-Cryopreserved
Mice homozygous for the shaker 2 spontaneous mutation (Myo15sh2) are viable and fertile, showing only a slight reduction in both compared to wildtype mice. Homozygous mutant mice display a phenotype very similar to the behavior and pathology to shaker-1 (Myo7ash1) with the exception that the abnormalities are observed a little earlier in shaker 2 mice. Homozygotes appear to be deaf from the beginning, and the saccular macula is abnormal at birth. The stria vascularis appears normal by light microscopy at 2 weeks, but begins to show degenerative changes shortly thereafter. Many of the cells contain electron-dense inclusions filled with a fine granular material. At 2.5 months, the type I hair cells of the cristae ampullares and maculae utriculi contain rod-shaped inclusion bodies composed of actin filaments. The visible phenotype of the shaker-2 Jackson (Myo15sh2-J, Stock No. 002048< > .....
