Pomctm2Ute
008115Under Development for Production
B6.129X1-Pomctm2Ute /J
These mutant mice lack pro-opiomelanocortin-alpha (POMC) and all POMC-derived peptides. Homozygotes are twice the weight of wildtype controls and have no detectable serum adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), corticosterone, or aldosterone. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of obesity, energy homeostasis and endocrinology.
Sgcatm2Kcam
008275Under Development for Production
B6.129S6-Sgcatm2Kcam /J
A loxP -flanked neomycin resistance cassette blocks expression of a His77Cys (H77C) missense mutation introduced to exon 3 of the gene. The mice develop progressive muscular dystrophy shortly as early as six weeks of age with typical pathological changes in skeletal muscle and an elevation of serum creatine kinase activity. After germline- or striated muscle-specific Cre-mediated excision of the floxed neomycin cassette, the locus expresses a transcript bearing the H77C missense mutation. The mutant protein is expressed in the sarcolemma of striated muscles, and homozygotes do not show any sign of muscular dystrophy as late as 88 weeks of age.
Sox10Dom

B6C3Fe a /a -Sox10Dom /J
Trp53tm2Xu
007218Under Development for Production
B6.129S6-Trp53tm2Xu /J
This targeted mutation of Trp53 (transformation related protein 53) contains two phosphorylation site disruptions: Ser18 to Ala (S18A), and Ser23 to Ala (S23A). Trp53-dependent apoptosis is essentially abolished in thymocytes from mice homozygous for this allele. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of phosphorylation events, cancer development and apoptosis.

C57BL/6-Tg(APOE-DGAT2)24Far/J
These Liv-DGAT2-low transgenic mice may be useful in studying hepatic steatosis, lipid, glucose, and insulin metabolism, as well as obesity and diabetes.
Tg(APOE-NPC1L1)20Lqyu
008408Under Development for Production
B6;D2-Tg(APOE-NPC1L1)20Lqyu/J
These transgenic mice express the human NPC1 (Niemann-Pick disease, type C1, gene)-like 1 (NPC1L1 ) gene under the control of the human apolipoprotein E (APOE ) promoter and hepatic control region. This mutant mouse strain exhibits decreased biliary cholesterol levels, which is associated with increased plasma cholesterol levels, and may be useful in studies related to lipid metabolism and cholesterol transport.
