Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:221340
• Parent Cell Line: Not Specified (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: BALB/cN

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A self-excising neomycin resistance cassette with a 5' loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 9. An additional loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 11. Cre-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette and exons 9 through 11. The predicted protein lacks the cysteine-rich domain. (J:221340)
