Mutation origin

• Mutant Cell Line: EPD0155_6_A07
• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:204739
• Parent Cell Line: JM8.N4 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6N
• Project Collection: EUCOMM

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout, Reporter)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion Vector: L1L2_Bact_P
• Mutation details: Cre-mediated excision of the parental Afmid^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi} allele resulted in the removal of the promoter-driven neomycin selection cassette and the critical exon 2 leaving behind the inserted lacZ reporter sequence. Further information on targeting strategies used for this and other IKMC alleles can be found at http://www.informatics.jax.org/mgihome/nomen/IKMC_schematics.shtml. qRT-PCR on liver and kidney confirmed absence of RNA in homozygotes. RNA expression of the immediately adjacent Tk1 gene is reduced by 52% in the kidney and 94% in liver of homozygotes. (J:204739, J:226537)
