Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A loxP-flanked neomycin cassette was inserted upstream of exon 8 and a third loxP sequence in intron 8. Cre mediated recombinase removed the neo cassette. Removal of exon 8 will result in frame-shift mutation with truncated protein. (J:212048)
