Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout, Reporter)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A construct containing an nls-LacZ cassette and neo cassette was inserted in exon 2 after the translation initiation codon via homologous recombination. Western blot analysis of whole embryo lysates confirmed the absence of protein expression in homozygotes. LacZ expression is similar to endogenous gene expression. (J:142442)
