• Name: echinoderm microtubule associated protein like 1; heterotopic cortex
• MGI ID: MGI:5560734
• Synonyms: HeCo
• Gene: Eml1 Location: Chr12:108337265-108505835 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr12, 59.46 cM

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: CD1 and NOR

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Spontaneous (Hypomorph)
• Mutation: Transposon insertion
• Mutation details: A 5.5 kb early retrotransposon element insertion flanked by a 6-bp direct repeat is found in intron 22. This results in skipping of exon 22 or exons 21 and 22 and the production of a truncated transcript. Full length wild-type transcripts are not detected in brains of homozygous mice. (J:211342)
• Inheritance: Recessive
