Endonuclease-mediated Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Map4^em1Coop
• Name: microtubule-associated protein 4; endonuclease-mediated mutation 1, Thomas A Cooper
• MGI ID: MGI:7865835
• Synonyms: Map4^deltaE8
• Gene: Map4 Location: Chr9:109760528-109913023 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr9, 59.83 cM

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: FVB/NJ

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Modified isoform(s))
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: CRISPR/cas9 mediated recombination using guide RNAs removed the alternatively splice exon 8. The isoform including exon 8 is found primarily in striated muscles and western blot analysis confirmed the absence of this isoform and elevated expression of the isoform lacking exon 8 in striated muscles from homozygous mice. (J:358165)
