| molecularNote | The zinc-binding site was deleted by replacement of partial exon 3 and entire exon 4 with a neomycin resistance cassette via homologous recombination. Inactivation of the gene was confirmed via Northern blot analysis of Il1a- and Il1b-stimulated primary embryonic fibroblasts derived from homozygous mutant animals. |
