Primary Identifier | MGI:4836397 | Allele Type | Spontaneous |
Gene | Nedd4l | Inheritance Mode | Recessive |
Strain of Origin | BALB/cByJ | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | This spontaneous mutation is a genomic deletion that includes alternative exon 2 and is predicted to cause a truncating mutation in the longest Nedd4l isoform. Imunoblotting, using antipeptide antisera that recognizes a conserved epitope, identified two Nedd4l isoforms in the wild-type kidney, one approximately 115 kDa, the other 101 kDa. A transcript for the longer isoform is not detected in mice homozygous for this mutant allele. |
