Targeted Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Akt1^tm1Mbb
• Name: thymoma viral proto-oncogene 1; targeted mutation 1, Morris J Birnbaum
• MGI ID: MGI:2180150
• Synonyms: Akt-
• Gene: Akt1 Location: Chr12:112620260-112641266 bp, - strand Genetic Position: Chr12, 61.2 cM, cytoband F1-F2
• Alliance: Akt1^tm1Mbb page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:72176
• Parent Cell Line: E14 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129P2/OlaHsd

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A neomycin resistance gene was used to replace exons 4 through 7 and the 5' portion of exon 8. Exon 5 is known to encode an lysine residue essential for catalytic activity. Expression was undetected in homozygous mutant animals by both Northern and Western blot analyses. The authors noted that the expression of Akt2 and Akt3 was normal in mice homozygous for the targeted allele. (J:72176)
