| Type | MGI:General | Description | gross perturbations to epithelial cell morphology in both the small intestine and proximal colon about 10% of enterocytes and about 40% of colonocytes exhibit a disruption in brush border morphology and about 35% of colonocytes appear to lack brush borders entirely intermicrovillar links are still present in brush borders with defects, although they are disorganized and no longer localized to the tips of microvilli mice lack the microvillar distal tip enrichment of Cdhr5 (MLPCDH) and Myo7b and exhibit a signal that is more broadly distributed along the microvillar axis |
