Mouse Homolog

      The mouse homolog of janus kinase 3 (present on mouse chromosome 8) when present as a homozygous null cause the animal to have: severe B cell development block, small thymi, failure of T-cell proliferation.  Autoimmune inflammatory bowel disease results from a homozygous point mutation.  [1]

A mouse chromosome 8 linkage map with human orthologies can be found: here
