hypomorphic allele - genetic evidence
Insertion 23bp upstream of exon 1.
abnormal neurophysiology | embryonic stage
lethal - all die during embryonic stage (with mtg1)
lethal - all die during embryonic stage | recessive
some die during embryonic stage (with mtg1)
some die during embryonic stage | recessive
neuromuscular junction | embryonic stage
Homozygous and mtg1/mtgP2 embryos show limited coordinated movement within the egg case, but they fail to hatch.
Response to glutamate at the neuromuscular junction is reduced in homozygous embryos.
