Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine point mutation Y98Cin the gene encoding mouse HIU hydrolase, Urah, results in undetectable protein expression. Mice homozygous for this mutation develop elevated platelet counts secondary to excess thrombopoietin production and hepatomegaly. The majority of homozygous mutant mice also develop hepatocellular carcinoma, and tumor development is accelerated by exposure to radiation Mus musculus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
Y98C point mutation in the gene encoding mouse HIU hydrolase, Urah, that perturbes uric acid metabolism within the liver. The substitution of cysteine for tyrosine in a conserved helical region results in undetectable protein expression. Mice homozygous for this mutation develop elevated platelet counts secondary to excess thrombopoietin production and hepatomegaly. The majority of homozygous mutant mice also develop hepatocellular carcinoma, and tumor development is accelerated by exposure to radiation Mus musculus
