Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Chemically induced (ENU)
Mutation:    Single point mutation
 
Mutation detailsThis ENU-induced mutation was isolated in a screen at the University of Pittsburgh.The causitive molecular lesion for the cardiovascular phenotypes is an A to T substitution at coding nucleotide 3641 in exon 21 of the cDNA (c.3641A>T, NM_001160400). This changes the asparagine residue to isoleucine at position 1214 in the encoded protein (p.N1214I). (J:175213) Additional incidental mutations were detected in sequencing for the causative mutation, Megf8b2b288Clo, and may be present in stocks carrying this mutation.

Notes
Summative Diagnosis:
Cardiovascular defects: Hetertoaxy with complex congenital heart disease such as transposition of the great arteries (TGA;{SDD}) and dextrocardia with double outlet right ventricle (DORV;{ILL}).
Non-cardiac phenotype: Anopthalmia, short snout, micrognathia, Cleft palate

Fyler Codes
The Fyler code developed by The Boston Children's Heart Foundation in Boston Children's Hospital provides a hierarchical clinical diagnosis of congenital cardiovascular defects and other disorders. These codes are used to delineate pathology in the mutant mouse models that parallel human disease and can be cross referenced to the International Pediatric and Congenital Cardiac Code (IPCCC) (http://www.ipccc.net/).

Fyler Code ID Code Description
0190 Heterotaxy syndrome
0602 DORV, ventricular defect committed to aorta
0700 D-loop transposition of the great arteries
1120 Complete common atrioventricular canal
3804 Congenital heart disease
3950 {S,D,D}
3973 {I,L,L}
4846 Carpenter syndrome
