Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6J
• Project Collection: Beutler Mutagenetix

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Chemically induced (ENU)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: This mutation comprises an A to T transversion in the intron 6 acceptor splice site (TCCCAG->TCCCTG), at nucleotide position 19597 of the gene sequence (Genbank NC_000076). The mutation is predicted to result in the in-frame deletion from the mature transcript of the entire 155 bp seventh exon. Neither cell surface nor intracellular staining with antibodies to integrin beta 2 detects the protein in homozygous mutant mice. (J:139559)
• Inheritance: Semidominant

• Mouse strains and cell lines available from the International Mouse Strain Resource (IMSR)
• Carrying this Mutation: Mouse Strains: 1 strain available Cell Lines: 0 lines available
• Carrying any Itgb2 Mutation: 50 strains or lines available

Notes

CD11 subunits (CD11a, CD11b and/or CD11c) are not detected on any cell type examined from homozygous mutant mice. NK cells from heterozygous mutant mice display CD11b at a level intermediate between those of wild-type and of homozygous mutant NK cells. (J:139559)
