Information from provider

ProviderKlaus Willecke
Provider affiliationMolecular genetics, LIMES Institute, University of Bonn
Genetic informationA point mutation in Gjb6 (Cx30) was introduced leading to an exchange of alanine to valine in position 88 of Cx30 (Cx30A88V). The ubiquitous expression of Cx30A88V is under the control of the endogenous Cx30 promoter. Additionally a IRES-NLS-LacZ reporter gene was introduced, monitoring the Cx30A88V expression.
Phenotypic informationHyperproliferative sebaceous glands, mild hyperkeratosis, hearing impairments.
