Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:33408
• Parent Cell Line: J1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S4/SvJae

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A premature chain termination was introduced downstream from codon 306 of exon 4 of the gene. Western blots of brain extracts from homozygous mutant mice showed no detectable insulin receptor protein. Reverse transcriptase-PCR of RNA isolated from brain, liver and skeletal muscle showed no transcript. (J:33408)
