Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:2079
• Parent Cell Line: E14TG2a (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129P2/OlaHsd

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A neomycin selection cassette was inserted into exon 11 (exon 10 in legacy nomenclature numbering) at sequences corresponding to codon 489 of the encoded protein. The authors predict that a truncated protein with amino acid 488 changed from isoleucine to alanine and a stop codon at position 489 are produced from this allele. (J:2079)

Notes

Epithelial tissue from the gastrointestinal tract and airways exhibit abnormal cyclic AMP-mediated chloride ion transport similar to that observed in CF patients (J:23817).
