Rhotm5.1(RHO*/GFP)Jhw expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe endogenous gene was replaced with a floxed HPRT minigene and a human RHO gene fused to GFP via homologous recombination. The human RHO gene contains a C-to-T nonsense mutation resulting in a premature stop codon in place of glutamic acid codon 344 (p.Q344*). Cre-mediated recombination removed the minigene. The loxP site in the 5' UTR of the human gene reduces expression about 5 fold by interfering with mRNA translation. (J:223491)
