Allelic Variant 1 |
fs ile582; MENKES DISEASE |
Identified Mutation |
1893_1894delAG |
Remarks |
Line S1095; no detectable MNK mRNA; donor subject has a 2bp deletion at nucleotide 1893 in exon 7 of the ATP7A gene (1893_1894delAG) resulting in a frameshift after ILE582; passage 8 at CCR. Please note that this line does not meet Coriell's typical quality standards for growth. It will be shipped frozen only. |
