Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:284796
• Parent Cell Line: G4 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: (129S6/SvEvTac x C57BL/6NCrl)F1

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A loxP site, a mutated exon 2 containing a G to C change at position 423 resulting in a lysine to asparagine mutation at amino acid 141 (K141N), an FRT-flanked neomycin selection cassette, and a loxP site replaced exon 2. Cre-mediated recombination removed the mutated exon 2 and the neomycin gene resulting in a null allele. Western blot analysis confirmed absence of protein. (J:284796)
