| Genetic information | The delta-V mu m construct encodes a human immunoglobulin mu heavy chain with a total deletion of the VDJ exon and an additional mutation, preventing IgM secretion. |
| Phenotypic information | Expression of the delta-V mu construct in conventional B cells leads to a quasi-total allelic exclusion of endogenous immunoglobulin genes. As a consequence, B cells express a truncated B cell receptor, devoid of the antigen binding domain. |
| Breeding history | Backcrossed to BALB/c for at least 12 generations. Currently bred as homozygous. |
