Mutation description

• Allele Type: Chemically induced (ENU)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: The Pretty2 mutation corresponds to an A-to-T transversion at nucleotide position 2388 of the gene (Genbank: NM_021099), in the 17th of 21 total exons, resulting in replacement of isoleucine by phenylalanine at amino acid position 787 (I787F) in the C-lobe of the protein, immediately preceding the kinase catalytic loop.
