| molecularNote | A targeting vector was designed to replace exon 1 (encoding the ATG and signal sequence) of the contactin associated protein-like 2 (Cntnap2) gene with a tau-LacZ gene and a neomycin resistance (neo) cassette in reverse orientation to the gene. Western blot and immunoblot analysis of brain and sciatic nerves, respectively, confirmed that no protein was expressed in mutant mice. |
