Genetic Alterations
CRISPR/Cas9 technology generated a T to G change resulting in a serine to alanine substitution at amino acid 637 (S637A) in the RS (arginine-serine) domain. This corresponds to the human S635A mutation identified in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
ES Cell Line
Not applicable
Phenotype
Mice carrying the S637A variant in RBM20 develop a DCM-like phenotype characterized by ventricular dilation, systolic dysfunction, and premature mortality. This phenotype arises due to mis-splicing of RBM20 target genes, including Ttn, and the formation of cytoplasmic RBM20 granules. Western blot analysis shows that phosphorylation at this site is dramatically reduced in heterozygotes and almost undetectable in homozygous mice and also that protein level is elevated in both heterozygotes and homozygotes compared to levels in wild-type mice.

Strain Development
The Rbm20em2Wguo mouse was generated via CRISPR/Cas9 system. Guide RNAs for the knock-in experiment were designed using the CRISPOR web tool. The genetically edited C57BL/6J mice were identified by PCR genotyping and Sanger sequencing.
