Allele

Symbol: Dtnbp1^sdy
Name: sandy
MGI accession ID: MGI:1856628
Generation method: Spontaneous
Marker symbol: Dtnbp1
Marker name: dystrobrevin binding protein 1
Chromosome: 13
Strain of origin: DBA/2J
Molecular note: The mutation in the sandy mouse has been attributed to a deletion in the Dtnbp1 gene from intron 5 nucleotide 3701 to intron 7 nucleotide 12377. The deletion results in the loss of 52 amino acids from position 119-172 and abolishes expression of the protein. Western analysis did not detect protein in hippocampus tissue from homozygous mutant mice.
