Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:45168
• Parent Cell Line: D3 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S2/SvPas

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Hypomorph)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A neomycin selection cassette was inserted into exon 10, 3' to the coding sequences of the gene. This allele expresses a twofold lower level of the encoded protein in the thymus and thus behaves as a hypomorph. (J:45168)
