| Status | Available to order |
| EMMA ID | EM:08316 |
| Citation information | RRID:IMSR_EM:08316 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.

| International strain name | B6;129S-Flrt3tm1Rob/RobH |
| Alternative name | Flrt3 tm1Rob |
| Strain type | Targeted Mutant Strains : Knock-out |
| Allele/Transgene symbol | Flrt3tm1Rob |
| Gene/Transgene symbol | Flrt3 |
Information from provider
| Provider | Elizabeth Robertson |
| Provider affiliation | Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, University of Oxford |
| Genetic information | Insertion of a beta-geo STOP polyA cassette upstream of Flrt3 exon 3. This generated a null allele as assessed by lack of Flrt3 protein. |
| Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Mouse embryos deficient in Flrt3 display defects in headfold fusion, definitive endoderm migration and a failure of the lateral edges of the ventral body wall to fuse, leading to cardia bifida. A small proportion of homozygous mutants survives gestation and develops as viable fertile animals (less than 3%).Heterozygous:Heterozygous mice have no phenotype. |
| Breeding history | Strain is currently maintained on C57BL/6J as heterozygous crosses. |
