Phenotyping
A swim test was used to phenotype het mice, tlt mice, and their littermates. Wildtype mice (+/+) swam toward the side of the pool. Homozygous het mice (het/het) and tlt mice (tlt/tlt) were identified by their inability to swim while keeping their head above water; instead, they swam in circles and somersault towards underwater. Heterozygotes (het/+ or tlt/+) were identified by an intermediate phenotype.
