Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Chemically induced (ENU) (Not Specified)
Mutation:    Single point mutation
 
Mutation details: 

This allele was discovered in a screen for attenuation of the Mecp2tm1.1Bird/Y phenotype among male G1 offspring from crosses of 129S-Mecp2tm1.1Bird/+ female mice by ENU-treated C57BL/6J males (G0). The mutation has been identified as a T to A point mutation in exon 4 that results in the amino acid substitution of a stop codon for tyrosine at position 132 (exon4:c.396T>A:p.Y132X). (J:323637)

Inheritance:    Other (see notes)
