Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: RB156Bnr/Ei-Dsp^rul/GrsrJ

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Spontaneous
• Mutation: Undefined
• Mutation details: This spontaneous mutation arose at The Jackson Laboratory in 2002. A noncomplementation test with Gulo^sfx demonstrated that this is an additional allele of Gulo.
• Inheritance: Recessive

Expression

• Carrying this Mutation: Mouse Strains: 0 strains available Cell Lines: 0 lines available
• Carrying any Gulo Mutation: 27 strains or lines available

Notes

The ruffled mutation in the background strain is still segregating in the RB156BNR/Ei-rul/J- Gulo^sfx-2J strain and when homozygous causes the Gulo^sfx-2J mice to have a ruffled looking coat.

The phenotype of this remutation is more severe than the original sfx mutation, suggesting a modifying gene may be present in the RB156BNR/Ei-rul/J background strain.
