Genetic Alterations
ENU-induced A to T transversion at base pair 46,311,626 (v38) on chromosome 19, or base pair 8,015 in the GenBank genomic region NC_000085 for the Nfkb2 gene. The mutation corresponds to residue 2,821 in the mRNA sequence NM_019408 (variant 1) within exon 21 of 22 total exons, to residue 2,670 in the mRNA sequence NM_001177369 (variant 2) within exon 22 of 23 total exons, and residue 2,586 in the mRNA sequence NM_001177370 (variant 3) within exon 21 of 22 total exons. The mutation results in a methionine (M) to leucine (L) substitution at position 838 (M838L) in all isoforms of the NF-?B2 protein.
Phenotype

Homozygous: Mice exhibited an increased frequency of B1a cells in the peripheral blood.

Heterozygous: No abnormal phenotype detected.

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
