• Synonyms: Hb9^taulacZ
• Gene: Mnx1 Location: Chr5:29678821-29683468 bp, - strand Genetic Position: Chr5, 15.04 cM
• Alliance: Mnx1^tm2Tmj page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:57340
• Parent Cell Line: W9.5/W95 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S1/Sv-Oca2⁺ Tyr⁺ Kitl⁺

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout, Reporter)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: Exon 1 was disrupted by the insertion of a cassette containing an IRES-tau-lacZ gene, a floxed neomycin gene, and a SV40 polyadenylation signal. The absence of encoded protein in the of homozygous mutant embryos was determined using antisera. Staining of heterozygotes showed the expression pattern of beta-galactosidase to be similar to that of the endogenous gene. (J:57340)
