• Parent Cell Line: E14TG2a (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129P2/OlaHsd

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Humanized sequence)
• Mutations: Insertion, Single point mutation
• Mutation details: A point mutation was created in exon 4 (c.965 C>T; coordinates refer to human e2 isoform) to change codon 322 from proline to leucine (p.P322L or p.Pro322Leu). This mutation is associated with human Rett syndrome. The loxP site flanked neomycin resistance gene and STOP cassette that was inserted into intron 2 was removed through subsequent cre-mediated recombination. (J:265095)
