Primary Identifier | MGI:3656016 | Allele Type | Chemically induced (ENU) |
Gene | Slc45a2 | Inheritance Mode | Recessive |
Strain of Origin | C57BL/6J | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | Sequencing of all exons of the gene identified a T-to-C transition in exon 2 that results in substitution of phenylalanine (TTT) with serine (TCT) in this very highly evolutionarily conserved protein. Failure to complement another mutation at this locus, underwhite 5 Jackson, verified responsibility of these mutations for the observed phenotype. |
