  (MGI Ref ID J:223954)

nervous system phenotype

• decreased prepulse inhibition
  • mice exhibit a deficit in prepulse inhibition under constant light conditions which is sustained even after mice are put in normal light-dark conditions; a light-dark exposure of 3 weeks after constant light partially reverses the prepulse inhibition deficits, however, it is still decreased compared to wild-type mice

  • cits, however, it is still decreased compared to wild-type mice
  (MGI Ref ID J:223954)

behavior/neurological phenotype

• abnormal operant conditioning behavior
  • mice exhibit normal performance in a reward-based operant task during habituation but require more days and trials to reach criterion in the testing phase, indicating delayed learning
  (MGI Ref ID J:197066)
  • mutants produce more responses and fewer omissions than wild-type mice on day 1 of testing due to increased compulsive and impulsive responses
  (MGI Ref ID J:197066)
  • despite requiring more time to reach criterion, mice respond faster on correct trails compared to wild-type mice and there are no differences in response to latency on incorrect trials or latency to retrieve reward pellets
  (MGI Ref ID J:197066)
  • over the course of testing (7 days), mutants decrease impulsive and compulsive responses and when they reach criterion, their impulsive and compulsive response totals are no different from wild-type mice

• hyperactivity
  • hat is still higher than seen in wild-type mice
  (MGI Ref ID J:223954)
  • mutants show comparable locomotor activity in the initial light-dark condition, but show an increase in total locomotor activity following exposure to constant light conditions, then a decrease in activity when exposed to the second light-dark condition that is still higher than seen in wild-type mice

• abnormal circadian behavior
  • the cycle-to-cycle variability of activity onsets during 12 hour-light:12 hour-dark (light-dark) condition, constant light, or constant darkness is higher than in wild-type mice, indicating that precision of locomotor activity rhythms are enhanced; variability is most pronounced during constant light, indicating that circadian clock is more sensitive to the effects of constant light
  (MGI Ref ID J:223954)
  • ility is most pronounced during constant light, indicating that circadian clock is more sensitive to the effects of constant light
  (MGI Ref ID J:223954)
