Endonuclease-mediated Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Alb^em8Mvw
• Name: albumin; endonuclease-mediated mutation 8, Michael Wiles
• MGI ID: MGI:5494601
• Synonyms: Alb-
• Gene: Alb Location: Chr5:90608756-90624461 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr5, 44.7 cM

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6J

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Intragenic deletion, Single point mutation
• Mutation details: Exon 4 was targeted by introduction of TALEN mRNA into fertilized C57BL/6J oocytes and the resulting founder screened and found to have a 1 base pair deletion at Chromosome 5 base 90,464,113 (GRCm38.p2) which is predicted to result in a frame shift then a premature stop codon 55 amino acids downstream of the encoded frame shift. By ELISA, heterozgyotes have a decrease in serum albumin of approximately 30 percent and homozygotes have no detectable serum albumin. (J:220803)
