Gene: Nppcem4Kyo (natriuretic peptide C; ZFN induced mutant 4, Kyo) Rattus norvegicus
Analyze
Symbol: Nppcem4Kyo
Name: natriuretic peptide C; ZFN induced mutant 4, Kyo
RGD ID: 127284873
Description: This allele was induced by Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) system injuected to F344/Stm pronuclear stage embryos. Selected ZFNs were designed to target exon 1 of rat Nppc, which encodes the N-terminus of natriuretic peptide precursor C (target sequence: CGAAGCCAAGCCCGGGACaccaccGAAGGTGGGTGCTGTCGCG; nucleotides 179 - 221, NC_005108.4). This Nppcem4Kyo ( delta 774) had a massive deletion within the Nppc gene that included the translation initiation site. Quantitative RT-PCR revealed that the expression of Nppc mRNA in the brain was drastically decreased in homozygous delta 774 mutant rats
ASSOCIATED WITH decreased body length; decreased body weight; decreased cranium length
