Hps1^ep-6J

This allele was identified by a noncomplementation test with Hps1ep. Direct DNA sequence analysis showed a complex 23 bp deletion/3 bp insertion in exon 17 of the Hps1 gene that introduced a translation terminator. In exon 19 there was a 7 bp duplication flanking an intracisternal A element with the long terminal repeats in the antisense transcriptional orientation. (J:40195)
