| Is Wild Type | false |
| description | Homozygotes are runted, act nervous, and usually die before 4 weeks of age. Hemizygous males have sperm defects similar to p6H, namely: multiple acrosomal vesicles and nuclei conjoined by a single acrosome. Heterozygote males are fertile with morphologically normal spermatogenesis (J:26849). |
| molecularNote | A single T to G transversion in a conserved splice donor site results in the skipping of an 159-bp exon and an inframe deletion of 53 amino acids. |
