Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:89880
• Parent Cell Line: ENS (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129/Sv

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: Cre-mediated recombination of Rfx3^tm2Wrth resulted in the excision of floxed exon 3, which encodes the DNA binding domain. RT-PCR showed that the deletion of exon 3 resulted in the splicing of exon 2 to exon 4, leading to a frameshift and premature termination at an out-of-frame stop codon. (J:89880)
