Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Humanized sequence, Inserted expressed sequence)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A V66M mutation was introduced into the prodomain via homologous recombination. The PGK-neo selection cassette was removed by crossing to a Cre strain with expression at one-cell zygote stage. Total expression of protein in brain lysates is similar to wild-type. (J:113019)
