| molecularNote | A neomycin cassette under the control of a polymerase II promoter was inserted at codon 135 in exon 2. RT-PCR analysis of total RNA derived from ocular tissue showed an absence of transcript in homozygous mutant mice. A lack of encoded protein was determined in homozygous mutant mice via immunocytochemical staining of retinal sections. |
