• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:31601
• Parent Cell Line: D3 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S2/SvPas

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A genomic fragment containing exons which encode critical regions of the protein was replaced with a neomycin selection gene. Northern blot analysis on RNA derived from homozygous mice demonstrated that no detectable protein was produced from this allele. (J:31601)
