Tg(Mnx1-Mfn2*T105M,-EGFP)1Dcc

The Mnx1 (homeobox HB9) promoter drives the expression of a C-terminally Myc-tagged mouse mitofusin 2 with the T105M mutation found in families with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A followed by an IRES and an EGFP in motor neurons. Western blot analysis with an anti-Myc antibody confirmed expression of the transgene. Sequence analysis of the insertion site indicates that the transgene inserted into a non-coding region on chromosome 11 between genes Rad51c and Ppm1e. (J:132035)
