Attractin Research Links

Without the use of models as described in the examples below, our insight into attractin's function would be a minuscule fraction of even our current limited understanding.

From the Kyoto Institute of Laboratory Animals, the following rat mutants and transgenics are available:

• WTC.ZI-Atrn-zi/Kyo  (basic Zitter allele)   [zitter]

• together with 4 rat lines for transgenic membrane attractin backcrossed onto the WTC.ZI-Atrn-zi/Kyo background:
  [TK320-14], [TK320-27], [TK322-43] and [TK322-48]

• and 2 rat lines for secreted membrane attractin backcrossed onto the WTC.ZI-Atrn-zi/Kyo background:
  [TK328-73] and [TK328-76 ]
