  Htt	(MGI:96067)

• Mutation details: This transgenic line expresses an N-terminally truncated human huntingtin cDNA that encodes 82 glutamines and encompasses the first 171 amino acids. The altered huntingtin cDNA is under control of a mouse prion protein promoter, which drives transgene expression in the neurons of the central nervous system (J:53797, J:99630)
