Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:104513
• Parent Cell Line: D3 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S2/SvPas

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Humanized sequence, Inserted expressed sequence)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A targeting vector was designed to insert a mutant exon 5 containing a deletion of trinucleotide GAA corresponding to the human codon 302. The cassette also carried a PGK-neo-pA-STOP, with a false translation signal, splice donor site and another polyA tail inserted into intron 4. Crossing with mice expressing cre in the germline removed the PGK-neo-STOP cassette. Heterozygous mice expressed transcript from the mutant allele. (J:104513)
