Genetic and phenotypic characterisation of a novel Efl1 mouse mutant of Shwachman Diamond syndrome

A novel mouse mutant was identified through an ENU (N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea) mutagenesis screen due to an abnormal gait. Next generation sequencing revealed the causative mutation to be in the gene Efl1 (K983R). The protein EFL1 is involved in ribosome maturation, a cellular process that is defective...
