Model Summary

Mice harboring the humanized A350V mutation in the IQSEC2 gene show reduced surface expression of GluA2 AMPA receptors in mouse hippocampal tissue, reduced basal synaptic transmission in the hippocampus, increased locomotion, abnormal social behavior and spatial learning deficits.

Model Type: Genetic
Model Genotype: Homozygous/Hemizygous

Mutation:

Mouse Iqsec2 (NM_001005475.2) with an A350V mutation identical to that found in the human where codon GCT (Ala) at amino acid 350 is mutated to GTT (Val) and an additional AGG to CGT silent mutation (R349) to prevent the guide RNA from targeting the same allele after repair.

Allele Type: Humanized LOF mutation
Strain of Origin: -
Genetic Background: C57BL/6J

Es cell line: -
Model Source: Applied Stem Cells (Milpitas, CA, United States)
