Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:74959
• Parent Cell Line: E14 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129P2/OlaHsd

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: The gene was disrupted by insertion of a PGK-hygro cassette into exon 2 (at amino acid 42) via homologous recombination. Absence of gene expression was verified by Western blot analysis of homozygous mutant MEFs using an antibody directed against the C-terminal domain of the human protein. (J:74959)
