Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:132854
• Parent Cell Line: RW-4 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129X1/SvJ

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A floxed human RET cDNA with an SV40 intron and poly-adenyation site followed by CFP with a poly-adenylation site and an frt-flanked neo cassette were inserted into exon 1 removing 39 base pairs including the start methionine codon and codons for the first 6 amino acids of the signal peptide. Germ-line, flp-mediated recombination was used to remove the neo cassette and leave a floxed RET and a CFP cassette. (J:132854)
