Perinatal lethality. Skeletal defects in all bones derived from endochondral ossification include cleft secondary palate hypoplasia and bending. Skeletal abnormalities similar to those found in campomelic dysplasia patients. Skeletal patterning was not affected. Premature mineralization of skeletal elements including craniofacial region and vertebral column. Hypertrophic zone of growth plate was thicker 208 . Conditional knockout. Embryonic lethality because of malformed heart tube. Elongated phalangeal segments of first forelimb digit and hypoplastic falciformis bones in the wrist were present in multiple heterozygous mutant mice 209 .

Lethality around weaning due to massive inflammation lesions and tissue necrosis in many organs 210 211 . Targeted disruption. Animals normal until after weaning. By 7 wk null mice develop alopecia flat face and short nose. .
