• MGI ID: MGI:6781911
• Synonyms: Scn2a^delta1898
• Gene: Scn2a Location: Chr2:65451115-65597791 bp, + strand Genetic Position: Chr2, 38.61 cM

Mutation origin

• Strain of Origin: (C57BL/6J x SJL/J)F1

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Hypomorph)
• Mutation: Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: CRISPR/Cas9 technology deleted 8 bp (nucleotides 5693-5697; CCACC and nucleotides 5699-5701; CTC) and generated a frameshift after T1898 in the C-terminus and a subsequent stop codon following 26 potentially novel amino acids. Truncation at T1898 eliminates the binding site for the channel auxiliary subunit calmodulin which regulates the persistent Na+ current. Protein truncation variants in the final exon are common to multiple autism spectrum disorder-associated mutations in this gene. (J:311772)
