| Research Abstract |
Knock out mice (KO mice) of Triobp isoforms are generated. It turned out that Triobp-4/5 KO stereocilia lack rootlet, and Triobp-1/5 KO mice are embryonic lethal. Both of these two models are deficient in two isoforms respectively, but single isoform specific KO mice are now generating. Adenovirus vector to express Triobp isoforms were also generated. Plasmids to express Triobp fragments were transfected into cultured cell to examine domain structure of Triobp.
