| Primary Identifier | MGI:3054730 | Allele Type | Chemically induced (other) |
| Gene | Rnu2-8 | Inheritance Mode | Recessive |
| Transmission | Germline | Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6J x 129S4/SvJae)F1 |
| Is Recombinase | false | Is Wild Type | false |
| molecularNote | This phenotypic allele was identified in an ethylmethanesulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis screen for neurological phenotypes. The molecular defect is a 5 base pair deletion between nucleotides 30 and 34 in a highly conserved region located in the U2 consensus branch site sequence (BSRS) and the linker region between the BSRS and the U2/U6 helix. |
