Abstract excerpt
Mice of the bustling mutant strain BUS/Idr have vestibulocochlear defects. bus/bus homozygotes, but not heterozygotes, are hyperactive and display an abnormal behavior such as circling, head bobbing and head tilting. To characterize BUS mice further, the auditory brain-stem response of the mutant was examined. In +/bus heterozygotes as well as control animals, the auditory brain-stem response was developmentally...
