Targeted Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Rfx2^tm1.1Wrth
• Name: regulatory factor X, 2 (influences HLA class II expression); targeted mutation 1.1, Walter Reith
• MGI ID: MGI:5792884
• Gene: Rfx2 Location: Chr17:57082897-57138013 bp, - strand Genetic Position: Chr17, 29.5 cM, cytoband D
• Alliance: Rfx2^tm1.1Wrth page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:228765
• Parent Cell Line: R1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: (129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-Kitl⁺

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: An FRT-flanked neomycin resistance cassette was inserted downstream of a floxed exon 7. Flp-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette. Cre-mediated recombination removed exon 7. Western blot analysis of testis protein extracts confirmed the absence of full-length protein in homozygous mutant mice. (J:228765)
