Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Modified isoform(s))
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A floxed neomycin resistance cassette replaced the short isoform-specific exon. Cre-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette. In situ hybridization confimred the absence of the short isoform in the hippocampus. (J:220073)
