Repository-Cryopreserved
Homozygous mutants are recognizable by the intense yellow color of their sera, gross bilirubinemia, and, especially in albino mice, jaundice. Photosensitivity is evidenced by the appearance of inflammatory skin lesions, often becoming ulcerous, under standard mouseroom conditions (fluorescent light). Mutants do not differ from their normal littermates in body size or weight, nor are they retarded in growth. They exhibit hepatomegaly and splenomegaly, leading to enlarged abdomens after several months of age. Although mutants are not anemic at one month old, normocytic anemia develops with age.
