This undefined mutation was identified in an ENU screen for recessive cardiovascular development phenotypes in Dr. Cecilia Lo's laboratory, NHLBI Cardiovascular Development Consortium (CvDC). It was recovered from G1 sperm and associated with the phenotype described here. Because G1 sperm were cryopreserved, additional incidental mutations are also segregating in this strain.
Homozygotes demonstrate cardiovascular defects that involve a double outlet right ventricle (DORV), transposition of the great arteries (TGA), and myocardial non-compaction and aortic arch anomalies including interrupted aortic arch (IAA) and right aortic arch (RAA).
