molecularNote | An IRES-LacZ-neo cassette was inserted into exon 2 of the gene, truncating the carboxyl-terminal active domain of the protein. In addition, this cassette was inserted in a region where point mutations create loss-of-function proteins. Finally, alternative splicing around the disrupted exon would shift the open reading frame. |
