Absence of an association between motor coordination and spatial orientation in lurcher mutant mice.

Abstract excerpt

Lurcher mutant mice were impaired in spatial orientation and motor coordination in comparison to normal mice. Both groups improved across days in both invisible and visible water maze platform conditions. Contrary to normal mice, lurcher mutants did not improve over days in terms of the time taken to reach a side-bar in a motor coordination test, an indication of defective motor learning. However, lurchers were...
