Caption Generation of Npc1tm1Mbjg knockin mice harboring two point mutations in NPC1 that abolish cholesterol binding activity. (A) Schematic of the mouse wild-type Npc1 allele and the targeting construct used to generate the Npc1tm1Mbjg (npc1pf) allele by introducting two point mutations (P202;F203 to A202;A203) into exon 5 of Npc1. The targeting vector also contains a loxP-flanked pgkneopA cassette and two copies of the HSV-TK gene as selection markers. The probe used for the Southern blot is denoted by the horizontal filled rectangle labeled "probe".
