Primary Identifier | MGI:2388561 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Inserted expressed sequence | Gene | Tg(Hoxb7-RET-C634K)2Vpa |
Strain of Origin | Not Specified | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
description | Trangenic founder mice were sacrificed at day E18.5 for analysis. |
molecularNote | The transgene consists of a human RET cDNA encoding the RET51 isoform with a cysteine to lysine substitution at position 634 (C634K) fused to mouse Hoxb7 promoter sequences (-1316 to +81). Mouse Hoxb7 promoter was used to drive expression of the transgene throughout the uretic bud branches. The C634K mutation is associated with the human disease MEN2A syndrome. |
