identification of extreme skeletal phenotypes in mutant mouse lines that carry single-gene knockouts representing all the known protein-coding genes. This approach has been made possible by the International Knockout Mouse Consortium (IKMC), whose aim is to

al. 2019 ) were conducted with male C57BL/6J or C57BL/6JRj mice (B6J), a commonly used mouse model to study the effects of diet-induced obesity and glucose intolerance. A limitation of using these mice for metabolic studies is a deficiency in

function in MIN6 cells. Their results suggest that mouse T1R3 (mT1R3) is not totally insensitive to lactisole. Nevertheless, since their results are apparently contradictory to previous reports ( Johnson et al . 1994 , Jiang et al . 2005 ), investigators

. Insight into the relationship between the imprinted genes within the PWS cluster and impaired function has been gained by comparing the phenotype of mouse models bearing different PWS-associated mutations. For example, neonatal failure to thrive and early
