Kitl^Sl-42R
Chemically induced Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Kitl^Sl-42R
• Name: kit ligand; steel 42 Oak Ridge
• MGI ID: MGI:2445946
• Gene: Kitl Location: Chr10:99851492-99936278 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr10, 51.4 cM
• Alliance: Kitl^Sl-42R page

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: 101/Rl

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Chemically induced (ENU)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: Nucleotide sequencing of Taq-generated RT-PCR products showed that this allele comprises a T-to-C transition. This eliminates exon 4 splice donor site G-GT by changing it to G-GA and produces an mRNA splicing defect through the use of a cryptic splice donor 8 bp downstream. There is little or no expression of wild-type mRNA. (J:80496)
• Inheritance: Semidominant
