Status | Available to order |
EMMA ID | EM:01247 |
International strain name | C3H.CAnN-Scn8aClth/H |
Alternative name | GENA399;Cloth-ears |
Strain type | Induced Mutant Strains : Chemically-induced |
Allele/Transgene symbol | Scn8aClth |
Gene/Transgene symbol | Scn8a |
Information from provider
Provider | Francesca Mackenzie |
Provider affiliation | MRC Mammalian Genetics Unit |
Genetic information | Cloth-ears mice show progressive semi-dominant deafness and tremors. Positional cloning of Cloth-ears identified a point mutation in the neuronal voltage-gated sodium channel type VIII alpha-subunit gene, Scn8a, causing an aspartic acid to valine (D981V) change, six amino acids downstream of the sixth transmembrane segment of the second domain (D2S6). |
Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Homozygotes show severe continuous tremor and deafness. Heterozygous:Heterozygotes show sporadic tremor and deafness. |
