Status | Available to order |
EMMA ID | EM:10177 |
International strain name | B6.129S4-Rasgrf1tm2Pds/Cnrm |
Alternative name | Rasgrf1tm2Pds |
Strain type | Targeted Mutant Strains : Other targeted |
Allele/Transgene symbol | Rasgrf1tm2Pds |
Gene/Transgene symbol | Rasgrf1 |
Information from provider
Provider | Riccardo Brambilla |
Provider affiliation | School of Biosciences, Cardiff University |
Genetic information | Ras-GRF1 mutant mouse. |
Phenotypic information | Homozygous:None, the mutation is only evident in one allele.Heterozygous:Imprinted methylation of the paternal Rasgrf1 allele is removed, allowing biallelic expression. In addition, this mutant shows overexpression of the Ras-GRF1 protein and alterations both in memory consolidation and behavioural responses to drugs of abuse. |
