Genetic Alterations
ENU-induced T to C transition at base pair 65,462,915 (v38) on chromosome 18, or base pair 31,947 in the GenBank genomic region NC_000084 for the Malt1 gene, within the donor splice site of intron 10 (2 base pairs from exon 10). The effect of the mutation at the cDNA and protein level have not examined, but the mutation is predicted to result in skipping of the 178-base pair exon 10 (out of 16 total exons), resulting in a frame-shift and coding of 13 aberrant amino acids followed by a premature stop codon within exon 11 (after amino acid 418).
Phenotype

Homozygous: Mice showed diminished T-dependent antibody responses to ovalbumin administered with aluminum hydroxide and recombinant Semliki Forest virus (rSFV)-β-galactosidase (rSFV-β-gal). The T-independent antibody response to 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenylacetyl-Ficoll (NP-Ficoll) was also diminished.

Heterozygous: The T-independent antibody response to 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenylacetyl-Ficoll (NP-Ficoll) was diminished to intermediate levels between wild-type and homozygous bryce_canyon mice.

Strain Development
Original mutant was a C57BL/6J G3 ENU-induced mutant; all subsequent crosses to maintain strain were on C57BL/6J background only.
Suggested Control Mice
Wild-type littermates or C57BL/6J mice
