| Primary Identifier | MGI:1856005 | Allele Type | Spontaneous |
| Gene | Myo5a | Inheritance Mode | Recessive |
| Strain of Origin | C57BL/Gr | Is Recombinase | false |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| description | Myo5ad-l, dilute-lethal, recessive. Dilute-lethal arose in the C57BL/Gr strain. The color of Myo5ad-l homozygotes is identical to that of Myo5ad homozygotes, but dilute-lethal mice develop a severe neuromuscular disorder characterized by convulsions and opisthotonus (arching upward of the head and tail), and they usually die at about 3 weeks of age (J:12978). |
| molecularNote | This Myo5a allele was identifed by a noncomlementation test result with Myo5ad. |
