002650 B6.129S2-Il6tm1Kopf/J
Level 3
Mice homozygous for the targeted mutation are viable and fertile. No gene product (mRNA) is detected by RT-PCR analysis of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenged macrophages. Bioassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) analysis of serum from LPS-challenged homozygotes reveals no detectable protein activity. These interleukin 6 (IL6) mutant mice show defects in responses to various viruses and in inflammatory responses to tissue damage or infection.

Of note, IL6-mutant mice may be available on different genetic backgrounds including mixed B6;129S2 (Stock No. 002254), C57BL/6J (Stock No. 002650), and BALB/cByJ.

In an attempt to offer alleles on well-characterized or multiple genetic backgrounds, alleles are frequently moved to a genetic background different from that on which an allele was first characterized. It should be noted that the phe .....
