Genetic Alterations
ENU-induced G to T transition at base pair 95,958,671 (v38) on chromosome 5, or base pair 1,733 in the GenBank genomic region NC_000071 for the ice gene. The mutation corresponds to residue 133 in the mRNA sequence NM_018866 within exon 2 of 4 total exons. The mutation results in a cysteine (C) to phenylalanine (F) substitution at position 34 (C34F) in the CXC chemokine ligand (CXCL) 13 [alternatively, B cell-attracting chemokine-1 (BCA-1) or B lymphocyte chemoattractant (BLC)] protein.
Phenotype

Homozygous: Mice showed an increase in B1 cell frequency in the peripheral blood and a diminished T-dependent antibody response to recombinant Semliki Forest virus (rSFV)-β-galactosidase (rSFV-β-gal).

Heterozygous: No abnormal phenotype detected.

Mammalian Phenotype Terms

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
