The Fcgr2b gene promoter in a set of autoimmune-prone mice was shown to be disrupted by a a 13 bp deletion interrupting two putative transcription factor binding sites, an AP4 site and an S box. Strains and strain families that carry this mutations include NZB, BXSB, SB/Le, MRL, NOD and 129. In addition, NZB has seven As from 247 to 242 instead of 6 (NZW) or 5 (CON); NOD has a T at 21 (as does NZW) instead of a C. (J:79651)
