Scrambler mouse
Scrambler is a spontaneous mutant lacking a functional DAB1 gene, resulting in a phenotype resembling that seen in the Reeler mouse.[1]
The strain was first described by Sweet et al in 1996.[2]
The spontaneous autosomal recessive scrambler mutation on chromosome 4 causes a deficiency of disabled-1, a protein involved in the signaling of the reelin protein, lacking in the reeler mutantCite error: The <ref> tag has too many names (see the help page).
