Gene: Mecp2em1Sage (methyl CpG binding protein 2; zinc finger nuclease induced mutant 1, Sigma Advanced Genetic Engineering Labs) Rattus norvegicus
Analyze
Symbol: Mecp2em1Sage
Name: methyl CpG binding protein 2; zinc finger nuclease induced mutant 1, Sigma Advanced Genetic Engineering Labs
RGD ID: 11568035
Description: The ZFN mutant allele was produced by injecting zinc finger nuclease targeting rat Mecp2 into Sprague Dawley embryos. The resulting mutation was a knockout of the methyl CpG binding protein 2 (Mecp2) demonstrated by western blot.
ASSOCIATED WITH abnormal action potential; abnormal motor coordination/balance; abnormal pulmonary respiratory rate; ASSOCIATED WITH Rett syndrome
Type: allele  of Mecp2  
Previously known as: Mecp2em1Sage; methyl CpG binding protein 2;zinc finger nuclease induced mutant 1, Sigma Advanced Genetic Engineering Labs
Is Marker For: Strains:   SD-Mecp2em1Sage  
Latest Assembly: mRatBN7.2 - mRatBN7.2 Assembly
Position: No map positions available.
