This allele from project Tcerg1-7710J-M6904 was generated at The Jackson Laboratory by injecting Cas9 RNA and 4 guide sequences GCAGCTCCAAGGTCACATGG, TATTTTCCCAAGCCTAGAGA, TTAGTATCAATTTTATGCAT and TTATAGAGGTTGCCATTTCT, which resulted in a 343 bp deletion spanning exon 2 beginning at Chromosome 18 positive strand position 42,519,305 bp, CCATGTGACCTTGGAGCTGC, and ending after GTGTTAGTATCAATTTTATG at 42,519,647 bp (GRCm38/mm10). This mutation deletes exon 2 and 117 bp of flanking intronic sequence including the splice acceptor and donor. There is an additional 2 bp deletion 40 bp before the 343 bp deletion and a 6 bp insertion (gtatta) at the 343 bp deletion site, that will not affect the results of the mutation. This deletion is predicted to cause a change of amino acid sequence after residue 20 and early truncation 17 amino acids later. (J:188991)
