Information from provider
| Provider | Raija Soininen |
| Provider affiliation | Biocenter Oulu, University of Oulu |
| Additional owner | Prof. Karl Tryggvason, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden |
| Genetic information | Exons 1 and 2 have been replaced by the PGK-neo cassette. |
| Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit impaired motor control of the hind limbs associated with improperly positioned synaptic active zones and junctional folds, and prenatal and neonatal hemorrhages associated with capillary defects.Heterozygous:none observed |
| Breeding history | Backcrossing into C57BL/6NCrl more than 10 generations, then transferred to another animal facility and breeding continued by sib-mating and occasionally to C57BL/6JOlaHsd. |
