Egfr^tm1Wag
Targeted Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Egfr^tm1Wag
• Name: epidermal growth factor receptor; targeted mutation 1, Erwin F Wagner
• MGI ID: MGI:1935108
• Synonyms: EGFR-
• Gene: Egfr Location: Chr11:16702203-16868158 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr11, 9.41 cM, cytoband A1-A4
• Alliance: Egfr^tm1Wag page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:26834
• Parent Cell Line: D3 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S2/SvPas

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout, Reporter)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: Part of the first exon was replaced by an in frame lacZ gene, followed by either a neomycin or a hygromycin selection cassette. These two different constructs were used to generate separate lines of mice, but the analysis did not distinguish between them. An EGFR-beta-galactosidase fusion protein was produced from this allele that was expressed under the control of the endogenous gene promoter. (J:26834)
