A stop codon was introduced into exon 9 at the codon for amino acid 276 in exon 13, within the phosphatase domain. An IRES-lacZ-tk-neo cassette replaced the region downstream of this mutation. Immunohistochemical analysis on nerve sections of mutants suggested that a truncated protein was still expressed by peripheral nerves. (J:104120)
