molecularNote | 0.5 kb of exon 3 encoding serine 139 to aspartic acid 309 was disrupted by insertion of a neomycin resistance cassette via homologous recombination. Successful targeting was verified in homozygous mutant animals by Southern blot analysis and chemotaxis assays. Spleen cells from homozygous animals demonstrated lack of chemotactic response towards EBI-1 ligand chemokine (ELC), a known ligand of the targeted gene. |
