Strain of Origin:  C57BL/6J
Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Endonuclease-mediated (Null/knockout)
Mutation:    Intragenic deletion
 
Mutation detailsCRISPR-targeting of exon 6 removed the two bases at the end of the exon. The resulting frameshift leads to a premature stop codon. This mutation mimics on identified in a human patient with beta-propeller protein-associated neuro-degeneration (BPAN). (J:297824)
