Hematopoietic analysis of the small maf mutants
| Genotype
|
Platelet count (×103/μl)
|
Megakaryocytes (% nucleated cells)a
|
|---|---|---|
| mafG+/− | 1213.7 ± 46.4 | 0.050 ± 0.017 |
| mafG−/− | 541.7 ± 48.4 | 0.147 ± 0.038 |
| mafK+/− | 1267.7 ± 17.2 | N.D. |
| mafK−/− | 1095.0 ± 58.1 | N.D. |
Whole blood and bone marrow were harvested from mafG and mafK mutant littermates, and the platelet count and megakaryocyte percentage were determined on three different animals of each genotype (see Materials and Methods).
(N.D.) Not determined.
