Gene: Kcnj1em1Kasu (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily J member 1; ZFN induced mutant 1,Kasu) Rattus norvegicus
Analyze
Symbol: Kcnj1em1Kasu
Name: potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily J member 1; ZFN induced mutant 1,Kasu
RGD ID: 13782352
Description: Zinc Finger Nuclease (ZFN) was utilized to knockout rat Kcnj1 function. ZFN constructs targeting the gene were designed and purchased from Sigma Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA).The targeting site sequence is CTCAAGTGACCATAGGTTACGgattcaGGTTTGTGAC (lower case represents the ZFN cleavage site). The resulting mutation is 209 bp deletion from G225 to G433, leading to frameshift and premature termination of Kcnj1 protein in homozygotes.
ASSOCIATED WITH decreased body weight; decreased circulating bicarbonate level; decreased susceptibility to hypertension
Type: allele  of Kcnj1  
Previously known as: Kcnj1^[em1Kasu]
Is Marker For: Strains:   SS-Kcnj1em1Kasu+/-   SS-Kcnj1em1Kasu-/-  
Latest Assembly: mRatBN7.2 - mRatBN7.2 Assembly
Position: No map positions available.
