Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Null/knockout)
Mutations:    Insertion, Intragenic deletion
 
Mutation detailsA 319 bp segment at the end of exon 1 was deleted and replaced with a neomycin resistance gene. Northern blot and western blot analysis on samples derived from skeletal muscle of homozygous mice confirmed that no transcript or protein is expressed from this allele. (J:35123)
