• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6J

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Spontaneous
• Mutations: Intragenic deletion, Inversion
• Kcnj8^mydy involves 1 genes/genome features (Kcnj8) View all
• Mutation details: The mayday mutation consists of a deletion of exon 1 and most of exon 2 in Kcnj8, due to their replacement by an inverted segment of intron 2. The mayday mutation arose spontaneously, and not as a result of ENU-induced mutagenesis. (J:126658)
