Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6J

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Spontaneous
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: Nucleotide sequence analysis of mutant complementary DNAs revealed a G-to-A transition (coding nucleotide 2368 in NM_021099) resulting in a aspartic acid to asparagine mutation at codson 790 (p.D790N). Kit receptor tyrosine kinase activity is affected but not c-kit encoded proteins. (J:10187, J:10528)
• Inheritance: Semidominant

Expression

In Mice Carrying this Mutation:	8 assay results
In Structures Affected by this Mutation:	5 anatomical structure(s)
