Mus musculus | lymphoma-infiltrated tissues tend to have reduced levels of Mtap mRNA and MTAP protein in addition to unaltered levels of methyldeoxycytidine. Loss of MTAP expression is independent from loss of CDKN2A expression | down |
General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
malfunction | mice homozygous for a MTAP null allele (MtaplacZ) have an embryonic lethal phenotype dying around day 8 postconception. Mtap/MtaplacZ heterozygotes are born at Mendelian frequencies and appear indistinguishable from wild-type mice during the first year of life, but tend to die prematurely with a median survival of 585 days. These animals have greatly enlarged spleens, altered thymic histology, and lymphocytic infiltration of their livers, consistent with lymphoma | Mus musculus |
physiological function | Mtap is essential during embryogenesis. Mtap is a tumor suppressor gene independent of CDKN2A and ARF | Mus musculus |
