Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Null/knockout)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mutation detailsA neomycin resistance cassette was inserted into exons 9 and 10 of the gene, which encode part of the active site of the enzyme. Enzymatic activity of the targeted protein in homozygous mutant mice was less than 4% of controls. (J:1100)

Notes
Homozygotes for the mutation die within 24 hours after birth, and store glucocerebroside in reticuloendothelial cell lysosomes (J:1100). Epidermal effects of Gbatm1Nsb include elevated glucosylceremide, diminished ceremide, and incompetent barrier function (J:17577).
