Gcn1^em2Itohk
Endonuclease-mediated Allele Detail

Summary

• Symbol: Gcn1^em2Itohk
• Name: GCN1 activator of EIF2AK4; endonuclease-mediated mutation 2, Ken Itoh
• MGI ID: MGI:6436701
• Synonyms: Gcn1^deltaRWDBD
• Gene: Gcn1 Location: Chr5:115703313-115760713 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr5, 56.1 cM
• Alliance: Gcn1^em2Itohk page

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Not Specified)
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: CRISPR/Cas9 technology was used to induce double-strand breaks within introns 45 and 53 and excise exons 46-53, thus deleting the RWD Binding Domain (RWDBD). Immunoblot analysis of homozygous mutant mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) revealed that the level of protein expression is reduced to 30% relative to that in wild-type MEFs. (J:287528)
