• MGI ID: MGI:3815117
• Synonyms: LCB2
• Gene: Sptlc2 Location: Chr12:87351832-87435129 bp, - strand Genetic Position: Chr12, 41.52 cM, cytoband E
• Alliance: Sptlc2^tm1Jia page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:140627
• Parent Cell Line: Not Specified (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: Not Specified

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: Exon 1, which contains the ATG start codon, was replaced with a neomycin resistance cassette. Southern blotting confirmed correct targeting of ES cells. Immunoblot analysis on heterozygote liver extracts indicated protein expression was reduced by more than half, confirming gene inactivation. (J:140627)
