Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:112002
• Parent Cell Line: AB2.2 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S7/SvEvBrd-Hprt1^b-m2

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A stop codon was introduced into exon 2, as well as a neomycin resistance cassette. RT-PCR confirmed the lack of wild-type transcript in mutants. It was demonstrated that exon 1 spliced to exon 3, resulting in a frame shift that would putatively result in a nonsense protein containing only the signal peptide. The allele is concluded to be a null. (J:112002)
