| Attribute String | Null/knockout | Gene | Il6 |
| Transmission | Germline | Strain of Origin | 129S2/SvPas |
| Is Recombinase | false | Is Wild Type | false |
| molecularNote | A neomycin selection cassette was inserted into exon 2. RT-PCR experiments on RNA derived from LPS-stimulated macrophages of homozygous mice demonstrated that no detectable transcript was produced from this allele. ELISA and bioassay experiments confirmed that no functional protein was made in homozygous mice. |
