Genetic Alterations
CRISPR/Cas9 technology generated an A to G change resulting in a serine to glycine substitution at amino acid 639 (p.S639G) in the RS domain. This is equivalent to the human S637G mutation seen in patients with severe dilated cardiomyopathy.
ES Cell Line
Not applicable
Phenotype
Mice carrying the S639G variant in RBM20 develop a DCM-like phenotype characterized by ventricular dilation, systolic dysfunction, and premature mortality. The mice also showed a reduction of diastolic stiffness and impaired contractility at both the left ventricular chamber and cardiomyocyte levels.

This phenotype arises due to mis-splicing of RBM20 target genes, including Ttn, and the formation of cytoplasmic RBM20 granules.

Strain Development
The Rbm20em3Wguo mouse was generated via CRISPR/Cas9 system. The guide RNAs used for the knock-in experiments were designed with the CRISPOR web tool. The Cas9 protein with sRNA complexes and oligo were injected into C57BL/6NJ zygotes. Genetically edited mice were identified by PCR and crossed to C57BL/6J at least once.
Suggested Control Mice
