description
Allele Type:    Chemically induced (ENU)
Mutation:    Single point mutation
 
Mutation detailsThe mutation underlying the phenotype in Leca3 mice was identified as a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 1266 of the Pax6 gene. The mutation occurs in exon 12 and introduces the Tyr369STOP change in the PST domain of the protein. (J:75964)

Notes

The phenotype in the Pax6Leca allelic series (Leca 1-4) produced a range of similar but variable eye phenotypes, with slightly smaller eyes and occasional adhensions between the lens and cornea.
