Mutation description

• Allele Type: Chemically induced (ENU)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: The mutant phenotype, discovered in an ENU mutagenesis screen for impaired response of peritoneal macrophages to Toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands, is due to a T-to-C transition at nucleotide position 1284 (Genbank Accession NM_031178) in the second of two exons. It results in replacement of leucine by proline at amino acid position 393 (L393P), the initial leucine in the fourteenth extracellular leucine-rich repeat of the receptor's ectodomain. (J:132489)
• Inheritance: Other (see notes)

• Carrying this Mutation: Mouse Strains: 1 strain available Cell Lines: 0 lines available
• Carrying any Tlr9 Mutation: 65 strains or lines available

Notes

The inheritance of the mutant phenotype is probably semidominant, like that of other Tlr9 mutations; however, homozygous mutants have not been examined.
