Genetic informationSee Steffes G. et al., 2012 (PubMed ID:23226461). The bsd mutation is a deletion affecting the Lmx1a gene, comprising approximately 13.48 Kb (7.89 Kb upstream and 5.36 Kb downstream of Lmx1a exon 3). The consequences of translating Lmx1a mRNA without exon 3 (exon skipping) would result in truncation of LMX1A protein after 91 amino acids. Exon 3 is 233 bp long and it has a start phase of 2 and an end phase of 1 for its coding sequence. Thus, skipping this exon in the mRNA would result in a frameshifted reading for exon 4, resulting in turn in incorrect amino acids in positions 89 to 91 (FAV to QKR) and the termination of protein translation at a first stop codon in the position of amino acid 92. The bsd mutation arose on a 129S5/SvEvBrd genetic background.
Phenotypic informationHomozygous:
Homozygous bsd mice are small, show circling and head-bobbing behaviour, display white belly patches, have short/blunt tails, and are profoundly deaf.

Heterozygous:
No obvious defects.
Breeding historyThis line was bred for several generations on a 129S5/SvEvBrd genetic background.

Order

Availabilities

Requesting frozen sperm or embryos is generally advisable wherever possible, in order to minimise the shipment of live mice.

Due to the dynamic nature of our processes strain availability may change at short notice. The local repository manager will advise you in these circumstances.

* In addition users have to cover all the shipping costs (including the cost for returning dry-shippers, where applicable).
