Information from provider

ProviderSophie Rutschmann
Provider affiliationMedicine, Imperial College London
Genetic informationAn ENU mutagenesis in a pure C57BL/6 background has induced a G to T transversion in the gene coding for deoxycytidine kinase (Dck) that results in a STOP codon for glutamic acid at position 247 (E247X). The mutant protein is functionally null.
Phenotypic informationA deficiency in deoxycytidine kinase affects peripheral T cell homeostatic proliferation and survival. Both B and T lymphocyte development is impaired, leading to a state of chronic lymphopenia and to a significant increase in the number of myeloid cells and erythrocytes. In the periphery, mutant lymphocytes adopt a memory phenotype, with high levels of proliferation and apoptosis, due to both cell-extrinsic and -intrinsic effects of the mutation.
Breeding historyInbred, G12
