Model organisms
Model organisms have been used in the study of 2010107G12Rik function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called 2010107G12Riktm1a(KOMP)Wtsi was generated as part of the International Knockout Mouse Consortium program — a high-throughput mutagenesis project to generate and distribute animal models of disease to interested scientists.

Male and female animals underwent a standardized phenotypic screen to determine the effects of deletion. Twenty four tests were carried out on homozygous mutant mice and one significant abnormality was observed: dorsal third ventricle areas were reduced in size.
