Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:211914
• Parent Cell Line: Not Specified (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129X1/SvJ

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: An FRT-flanked neomycin resistance cassette with a 5' loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 2. An additional loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 2. Flp-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette and left exon 2 floxed. (J:211914)
