Fmn1^tm1Led
Targeted Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Fmn1^tm1Led
• Name: formin 1; targeted mutation 1, Philip Leder
• MGI ID: MGI:2386598
• Synonyms: fmn^4KO
• Gene: Fmn1 Location: Chr2:113158081-113547112 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr2, 57.3 cM, cytoband C1-qter
• Alliance: Fmn1^tm1Led page

Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:50647
• Parent Cell Line: TC1/TC-1 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S6/SvEvTac

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: Exon 4 was replaced by a PGK-neo cassette inserted by homologous recombination. Circular transcripts were undetected by RT-PCR analysis of brain and kidney samples obtained from homozygous mutant mice. Ribonuclease protection assays showed that transcripts lacking the targeted exon were present at normal levels in homozygous mutant mice. Corresponding results were obtained by Western blot analysis. (J:50647)

Notes

Homozygous mutant mice have normal limbs, but display variably penetrant renal aplasia characteristic of other limb deformity mutant alleles (J:50647).
