Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:121910
• Parent Cell Line: TL1/TL-1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S6/SvEvTac

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Nucleotide substitutions
• Mutation details: A construct with an inactivating single base pair mutation was introduced into exon 9 via site specific mutagenesis. This is predicted to to change amino acid 414 from lysine to glutamic acid in the encoded protein. (J:121910)

Notes

On congenic B6 background, analysis is done on mice with allele with pgk-neo selection cassette deleted through mating to cre transgenic mice; on the coisogenic 129S6 background, allele retaining pgk-neo is analyzed, and authors state that presence of neo has no apparent effect on phenotype compared with mice on C57BL/6J congenic background. MMRRC has 129S6 mice carrying Gck^tm2Mgn (retaining neo cassette).
