Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:302593
• Parent Cell Line: E14.1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129P2/OlaHsd

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A loxP site was inserted into intron 1 and an FRT site flanked neomycin selection cassette and a second loxP site into intron 2. The neo cassette was removed via flp-mediated recombination and exon 2 was deleted via cre-mediated recombination in the germline. Western blot and qRT-PCR experiments confirmed the lack of peptide and transcript expression from this allele in liver and heart. (J:302593)
