Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information construction of Prss8 knockout mutant mice. A T to G substitution, leading to substitution of the active site serine within the catalytic histidine-aspartate-serine triad with alanine, is introduced into exon 6 by site-directed mutagenesis, the clone is injected into strain C57BL/6J blastocysts Mus musculus

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction prostasin null mice lack barrier formation and display fatal postnatal dehydration. But mice homozygous for a point mutation in the Prss8 gene, which causes the substitution of the active site serine within the catalytic histidine-aspartate-serine triad with alanine and renders prostasin catalytically inactive, develop barrier function and are healthy when followed for up to 20 weeks. Phenotypes, overview Mus musculus
