  PRKAG2 (51422)

  Prkag2

  (MGI:1336153)

  Transgene codes for a protein with an arginine to glutamine mutation.

• Mutation details: This transgene consists of the human Prkag2 cDNA, with a point mutation altering arginine 531 to glycine, under the control of the cardiac-specific alpha-myosin heavy chain promoter. Western blot analysis of heart lysates confirmed that protein expression is restricted to the heart. (J:108517)
