molecularNote | The floxed fragment containing exon 2, portions of the surrounding introns, and a neo cassette were excised via cre mediated recombination in vivo. While shortened transcript was detected by RT-PCR analysis of homozygous mutant thymii, sequence analysis of the transcript identified a frameshift mutation resulting from the splicing of exons 1 and 3 that precludes translation past exon 1. |
