description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Null/knockout)
Mutations:    Insertion, Intragenic deletion
 
Mutation detailsSequence encompassing two full exons and a portion of a third, collectively encoding membrane domains I and II, were replaced with a neomycin selection cassette inserted by homologous recombination. Normal protein was undetected by immunohistochemical analysis of homozygous mutant hippocampal sections. (J:81742)
