Strain Registration

Strain: Wpk -/-

Symbol: Wpk -/-
Strain: Wpk
Full Name: Wpk homozygous rat
RGD ID: 15017094
Citation ID: RRID:RGD_15017094
Ontology ID: RS:0004764
Alleles: Tmem67wpk
Previously known as: Wpk -/- ; TMEM67−/−
Type: mutant
Source: Not Available
Origin: The wpk mutation was first recognized in 1994 in a colony of outbred Wistar rats at Utrecht University (Utrecht, The Netherlands). In 1996, a breeding pair of test-proven heterozygotes were transferred to the University of Rotterdam (Rotterdam, The Netherlands), and a new subcolony was initiated. This colony has been maintained by brother-sister matings for more than five generations. Individuals heterozygous for the mutant allele were identified in each generation by test-crossing phenotypically normal offspring from known heterozygotes. A single C to T substitution in exon 12 was identified as the mutated allele in the Wpk rat. This mutation converts a proline to a leucine in the protein products(P394L).
Genetic Status: Homozygous
Last Known Status: Unknown
