Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:102425
• Parent Cell Line: R1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: (129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-Kitl⁺

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Humanized sequence, Modified isoform(s))
• Mutation: Nucleotide substitutions
• Mutation details: A targeting construct was designed to insert a P264L mutation into exon 8. Northern blot demonstrated mRNA levels were comparable in mutants and wild-type mice. Western blot indicated that despite normal mRNA expression, expression of N- and C-terminal fragments was reduced by about 50%. (J:102425)
