Strain: SD-Mecp2em1Sage

Symbol: SD-Mecp2em1Sage
Strain: SD-Mecp2em1
Substrain: Sage
RGD ID: 11567272
Citation ID: RRID:RGD_11567272
Ontology ID: RS:0005253
Alleles: Mecp2em1Sage
Also Known As: SD-Mecp2tm1sage; TGRA6090; SD-Mecp2em1Sage; Sage:SD-Mecp2tm1Sage; MeCP2 knockout rat; SD-Mecp2^[em1Sage]
Type: mutant
Available Source: Horizon Discovery
Origination: Horizon Discovery
Description: The ZFN mutant rat strain was produced by injecting zinc finger nuclease targeting rat Mecp2 into Sprague Dawley embryos. This mutant rat has a knockout of the methyl CpG binding protein 2 (Mecp2).
Genetic Status: Heterozygous
Last Known Status: Live Animals (as of 2016-12-13)
Research Usage Autism, Rett syndrome, Cognition
