EMMA ID	EM:04739
Citation information	RRID:IMSR_EM:04739 Research Resource Identifiers (RRID) are persistent unique ID numbers assigned to help researchers cite key resources (e.g. antibodies, model organisms and software projects) in the biomedical literature to improve transparency and reproducibility in research. See https://www.rrids.org/ for more information.
International strain name	C57BL/6N-Npc1^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Hmgu}/H
Alternative name	HEPD0534_4_G05
Strain type	Targeted Mutant Strains
Allele/Transgene symbol	Npc1^{tm1a(EUCOMM)Hmgu}
Gene/Transgene symbol	Npc1
Disclaimer	Please note that for EUCOMM and KOMP-CSD mice supplied to the scientific community by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA: We can not guarantee a null mutation for Knock-out first alleles (tm1a alleles, see http://www.mousephenotype.org/about-ikmc/targeting-strategies) as the critical exon has not been deleted. That the structure of the targeted mutation in the ES cells obtained from EUCOMM/KOMP to generate EUCOMM/KOMP mice is not verified by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA. It is recommended that the recipient confirms the mutation structure. No check for determining the copy number of the targeting construct in ES cells obtained from EUCOMM/KOMP is done by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA. The level of quality control before mice are released is to confirm the individual mouse genotype by short range PCR.
