Origin

At the Hubrecht Institute a nonsense mutation at amino acid position 59 (Glu to stop) within the catalytic center ABC transporter-like domain of the rat Abcg2 (Bcrp) gene was isolated which eliminates all wild-type protein. Transferred to Charles River under exclusive license from Transposagen in 2010.
