Primary Identifier | MGI:3804207 | Allele Type | Targeted |
Attribute String | Conditional ready, Hypomorph | Gene | Hand2 |
Transmission | Germline | Strain of Origin | 129S1/SvImJ |
Is Recombinase | false | Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | A loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 1 and a floxed neo cassette was inserted downstream of exon 1. Quanitative RT-PCR analysis of jaws from E11 embryos indicated that transcript expression in homozygous embryos was only about 14% that of wild-type littermates. Therefore, this allele is a hypomorph. |
