Primary Identifier | MGI:1856820 | Allele Type | Spontaneous |
Gene | Lmf1 | Inheritance Mode | Recessive |
Strain of Origin | M. m. musculus (Northern Jutland, Denmark) | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
description | Lmf1 |
molecularNote | This mutation was found as a "parasitic lethal" in tw73 and recovered from the haplotype by recombination. A full-length murine endogenous retrovirus (MuERV) is inserted into intron 7. This results in the expression of an aberrant mRNA that contains sequences derived from exons 1-7, but is missing sequences derived from exons 8-11. 400 bp of viral sequence replaced the missing sequences in the mRNA. |
