Type  MGI:General Description  at P4, mutant lenses display multiple clefts of various sizes in the embryonic nucleus, unlike wild-type lenses at P10, abnormal remnants of fiber cell nuclei persist in secondary fibers in the anterior lens region; in contrast, the cell nuclei of wild-type differentiating lens fibers are degraded normally by 7 weeks of age, the degenerated lens nucleus is separated from the cortical fibers indicating liquefaction of perinuclear lens fibers, unlike in wild-type lenses
