B6;129S-Nlgn2tm1.1Gchn/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250894

Common Name: NL2 R215H
An Arg215His (R215H) loss-of-function point mutation in the human neuroligin 2 gene has been identified in schizophrenia patients. These NL2 R215H mice carry a corresponding R215H point mutation in the mouse Nlgn2 gene in addition to loxP sites flanking exons 4-7.

Molecular Note
A loxP site and an FRT flanked PGK-neomycin cassette (in reverse transcriptional orientation) are placed in intron 3 along with a loxP site in intron 7 (thus flanking exons 4-7 with loxP sites). In addition, an Arg215His (R215H amino acid; G644A nucleotide) mutation is introduced to exon 4 of the gene. Flp-mediated recombination removed the FRT flanked neo cassette. The Arg215His (R215H) loss-of-function point mutation in the human gene has been identified in schizophrenia patients.
