  Organism

  Expressed Gene

  Homolog in Mouse

  Note

  human

  MAPT (4137)

  Mapt	(MGI:97180)

• Mutation details: The transgene construct contains the P301S mutant human microtubule-associated protein tau, MAPT, under the direction of the mouse prion protein, Prnp, promoter. The expression of the mutant human MAPT is 5-fold higher than the expression of the endogenous mouse Mapt protein. Transgene insertion occurred on Chr 3, causing a 249 Kb deletion. (J:119741)
