Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:103713
• Parent Cell Line: J1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S4/SvJae

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A fragment lacking a guanine at nucleotide 208 of the gene replaced the endogenous sequence by homologous recombination. Cre mediated recombination removed a floxed neomycin selection cassette. RT-PCR did not detect transcript using primers designed to amplify sequence downstream of the deleted guanine. (J:103713)
