description
Allele Type:    Spontaneous
Mutation:    Undefined
 
Mutation detailsThis allele was identified by a noncomplementation test with Tgfatm1Unc. Although the specific molecular lesion has not been identified, Northern blot analysis revealed that expression of TGFalpha transcript was reduced in homozygous mice. (J:4605)
