Model organisms
Model organisms have been used in the study of SOCS7 function. A conditional knockout mouse line, called Socs7tm1a(EUCOMM)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 five tests were carried out on mutant mice and one significant abnormality was observed: homozygous mutant males showed a decreased response to stress-induced hyperthermia.
Interactions
SOCS7 has been shown to interact with NCK1.
