Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit failure of zygotic cell division, increased cell death, and complete embryonic lethality before implantation. Conditional KO in pre-migratory neural crest cells (NCCs) leads to craniofacial and cardiovascular abnormalities and is embryonic lethal. Conditional KO in migratory NCCs leads to craniofacial defects and is embryonic lethal. Conditional forebrain KO leads to telencephalon hypoplasia. Conditional cardiac KO leads to cardiovascular abnormalities.
