Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Humanized sequence, Hypomorph)
• Mutation: Single point mutation
• Mutation details: CRISPR/Cas9 technology introduced a G to A SNP encoding for the arginine-to-histidine (R47H) missense mutation into the gene. No off-target mutations were found. A 42% decrease in RNA levels in the brain is seen. (J:264653)
