Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:65765
• Parent Cell Line: R1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: (129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-Kitl⁺

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: Insertion of loxP sequences flanking the exons encoding the amino terminus of the protein, including the initiator methionine and most of the paired domain. A frt-flanked neomycin cassette in intron 6 was removed via Flp-mediated recomination to create the final allele. These insertions had no effect on the normal function of the allele. (J:65765)
