Model organisms have been used in the study of CYB561 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Cyb561^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi[11][12]} was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.^[13][14][15]

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion.^[9][16] Twenty three tests were carried out on mutant mice and one significant abnormality was observed: female homozygotes displayed a decreased circulating glucose level after a glucose tolerance test.^[9]
