  (MGI:103013)

• Mutation details: The full-length human L-type voltage-dependent calcium channel alpha 1C subunit coding sequence is under the control of the mouse alpha-myosin heavy chain promoter. Five founder lines were established, M1-M5. This line carries 8 copies of the transgene. Western blot analysis confirmed protein expression. (J:129494)
