• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6J

Mutation description

Allele Type: Chemically induced (ENU) Mutation: Single point mutation Mutation details: ENU mutagenesis induced a T to A point mutation that results in the amino acid substitution of asparagine for isoleucine at position 487 (I487N). Immunohistochemistry reveals an absence of protein expression in sensory epithelium. (J:195666) Inheritance: Semidominant
