Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:64426
• Parent Cell Line: H1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S2/SvPas

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: The gene was disrupted by insertion of a neomycin resistance cassette into exon 3 encoding the first zinc finger domain via homologous recombination. RT-PCR analysis of ovary mRNA from mutant animals detected 3 faint RNA species all lacking exon 3. Immunohistochemical analysis of ovary sections from homozygous mutant animals did not detect protein product. (J:64426)
