| The Diversity Outbred (DO) stock is designed to be the most genetically diverse mouse resource available, allowing more accurate modeling of the human population and more refined gene mapping resolution than any other mouse model. Individual DO mice have highly heterogenous genomes as a result of their diverse parental genetic contributions (see 'Development' below). DO mice may be used as a tool for high resolution genetic mapping and validation of previously identified quantitative trait loci (QTLs) linked to disease susceptibility, drug resistance or behavioral phenotypes. High density genotyping of individual mice can be achieved with genotyping arrays. DO mice may also be useful for toxicogenomic screens, compound evaluation in a genetically diverse population, and the development of opposite responder populations with high and low responses for specific phenotypes of interest.

| 000664 | C57BL/6J | Level 1 |
| C57BL/6 is the most widely used inbred strain. It is commonly used as a general purpose strain and background strain for the generation of congenics carrying both spontaneous and induced mutations. Although this strain is refractory to many tumors, it is a permissive background for maximal expression of most mutations. C57BL/6J mice are used in a wide variety of research areas including cardiovascular biology, developmental biology, diabetes and obesity, genetics, immunology, neurobiology, and sensorineural research. C57BL/6J mice are also commonly used in the production of transgenic mice. Overall, C57BL/6 mice breed well, are long-lived, and have a low susceptibility to tumors. Primitive hematopoietic stem cells from C57BL/6J mice show greatly delayed senescence relative to BALB/c and DBA/2J. This is a dominant trait. Other characteristics include: 1) a high susceptibility to diet-induced obesity, type 2 diabetes, and atherosclerosis; 2) a high incidence of microphthalmia and other a .....

| 001800 | FVB/NJ | Level 1 |
| FVB/NJ was inbred for the Fv1b allele which confers sensitivity to the Friend leukemia virus B strain. Due to the prominent pronuclei in their fertilized eggs and the large litter size, FVB/NJ mice are commonly used for transgenic injection. Compared to many other inbred strains, FVB/NJ is highly susceptible to asthma-like airway responsiveness with significant generation of antigen-specific IgE. Despite having the H2q MHC haplotype, FVB/NJ are resistant to collagen-induced arthritis. This resistance stems from coding polymorphisms in Tcra-V11.1 and a genomic deletion of some Tcrb-V genes that includes Tcrb-V8.2. FVB/NJ have higher than average activity, anxiety, and basal body temperature, low stress-induced hyperthermia, and are homozygous for the Pde6brd1 allele, which results in early onset retinal degeneration. Although FVB/N typically do not develop spontaneous tumors, they are highly susceptible to chemic ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||
| 002448 | 129S1/SvImJ | Level 2 |
| Historically, the 129 inbred mice are known for the high incidence of spontaneous testicular teratomas, though the incidence differs between substrains.(1-3% in 129 parental substrains; 30% in teratoma substrains.) More recently, 129 mice are widely used in the production of targeted mutations due to the availability of multiple embryonic stem cell lines derived from them. There is major genetic variation within the 129 "family", which has led to an update of the nomenclature and a division of the substrains into three major groups: parental substrains (129P), steel substrains (129S) and "teratoma" substrains (129T). Investigators using 129 substrains for targeted mutagenesis should be careful in the selection of the appropriate 129 substrain to match the embryonic stem cell line. For a complete history of the numerous 129 substrains, see Simpson, et al., 1997.

| 000058 | B6(Cg)-Tyrc-2J/J | Level 2 |
| Mice homozygous for Tyrc-2J are phenotypically identical to homozygotes for the classic albino allele. Pigment is completely absent from skin, hair and eyes. While Tyr mRNA levels of Tyrc-2J homozygotes are similar to those of wild-type mice, there is virtually no tyrosinase protein present (Le Fur et al. 1996). Both homozygote and heterozygote mice are highly resistant to light damage and exhibit retinal degeneration (increased photoreceptor death) into young adulthood. Degeneration does not continue in adult mice (Bravo-Nuevo et al. 2004). | ||
| 000406 | B6.PL-Thy1a/CyJ | Level 2 |
| This C57BL/6J congenic strain is useful because it carries the T lymphocyte specific Thy1a (Thy1.1) allele. Donor T cells can be easily distinguished from recipient T cells by both flow cytometric and histological analysis using appropriate antibodies. | ||
| 002014 | B6.SJL-Ptprca Pepcb/BoyJ | Level 2 |
| This is a congenic strain used in transplant studies because it carries the differential B cell antigen originally designated Ly5.1 and CD45.1 The current use of the Ptprc designation for Cd45 and Ly5 was based on work in humans following the report of Charbonneau and colleagues who first showed that a protein-tyrosine phosphatase (human placental protein-tyrosine phosphatase 1B) was homologous to the CD45 protein. Ptprc is one of a family of protein-tyrosine phosphatase genes involved in the regulation of cell growth. The b allele is normally present in the BALB and C57BL inbred strains. | ||

| 003474 | B6.129S4-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1Sor/J | Level 4 |
| Homozygous mice are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked DNA STOP sequence preventing expression of the downstream lacZ gene. When crossed with a cre transgenic strain, the STOP sequence is removed and lacZ is expressed in cells/tissues where cre is expressed. These mutant mice may be used as a Cre-reporter strain; to test the tissue/cellular expression pattern of cre transgenic mice. | ||
| 003291 | C57BL/6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)1Osb/J | Level 4 |
| This transgenic mouse line with an "enhanced" GFP (EGFP) cDNA under the control of a chicken beta-actin promoter and cytomegalovirus enhancer makes all of the tissues, with the exception of erythrocytes and hair, appear green under excitation light. Note that the donating investigator reports that mice homozygous for this transgene die within the first two weeks following birth.
Of note, it has been the experience at The Jackson Laboratory that Stock No. 006567 (C57BL/6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)131Osb/LeySopJ) demonstrates the highest proportion of GFP expressing cell populations in bone marrow, thymus, spleen and peripheral blood when compared to Stock No. 003291 (C57BL/6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)1Osb/J) and Stock No. 007075 (CByJ.B6-Tg(CAG-EGFP)1Osb/J).

| 004353 | C57BL/6-Tg(UBC-GFP)30Scha/J | Level 4 |
| These transgenic mice express enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) under the direction of the human ubiqutin C promoter. Mice homozygous for the transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These mice express GFP in all tissues examined. Certain hematapoetic cell types display distinct expression levels of GFP, allowing identification of different cells types by FACS analysis. GFP expression is uniform within a cell type lineage and remains constant throughout development. T cells have a 2-fold higher GFP expression than CD19+B220+ B cells or peripheral blood cells. Leukocytes and red blood cells from homozygous mice fluoresce at approximately twice the level of cells from hemizygous mice. This mutant mouse strain represents a useful tool in studies related to hematopoetic cell differentiation and in vivo tracking of leukocytes. | ||
| 000928 | CAST/EiJ | Level 4 |
| 004337 | 129(Cg)-Foxg1tm1(cre)Skm/J | Repository- Live |
| This strain expresses Cre recombinase from the endogenous Foxg1 locus. Forkhead box G1 is required for telencephalon development and is expressed specifically in the telencephalon and discrete head structures. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in tissue-specific deletion of the target. Recombination occurs in the telencephalon, anterior optic vesicle (developing lens and retina), otic vesicle, facial and head ectoderm, olfactory epithelium, mid-hindbrain junction and pharyngeal pouches. Mice that are homozygous for the targeted mutation die perinatally. Heterozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. This mutant mouse strain represents a model that may be useful in studies of telencephalic development. | ||
| 008569 | 129-Alpltm1(cre)Nagy/J | Repository- Live |
| This strain expresses Cre recombinase from the targeted locus. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination results in tissue-specific deletion of the flanked sequence. Recombination occurs primarily in embryonic primordial germ cells. Approximately 60% of gonadal cells isolated from embryonic day 13.5 embryos exhibit Cre recombinase activity. Mosaic ectopic recombinase activity does occur. Homozygotes are not viable. This mutant mouse strain represents a model that may be useful in studies of reproductive and endocrine systems development. | ||
| 001137 | 129P1/ReJ | Repository- Live |
| For a complete history of the numerous 129 substrains please refer to Simpson, et al., 1997. Historically, the 129 inbred mice are known for the high incidence of spontaneous testicular teratomas, though the incidence differs between substrains. Most recently 129 mice are widely used strain in the production of targeted mutations due to the availability of several lines of embryonic stem cells. There is major genetic variation within the 129 "family", which has led to an update of the nomenclature and a division of substrains into three major groups: parental substrains, steel substrains and "ter" substrains. Investigators using 129 substrains for targeted mutagenesis should be careful in the selection of the appropriate 129 substrain to match the embryonic stem cell line. | ||
| 016251 | 129S.Cg-Tg(Hoxb7-EGFP)33Cos/J | Repository- Live |
| Hoxb7-EGFP transgenic mice have the homeobox B7 promoter/enhancer sequences driving expression of an enhanced green fluorescent protein, EGFP. Hemizygotes are viable, fertile, and normal in size. Under control of Hoxb7, EGFP labels the Wolffian duct and branching ureteric bud (UB) of the kidney during embryonic development. Fluorescence is evident in tissues specific to the UB lineage in adult and newborn kidneys, including the ureter, pelvis, and collecting ducts. This strain allows for the visualization of tissues specific to the UB lineage. In contrast, mice containing the Tg(Hoxb7-Venus*)17Cos allele (Stock No. 016252) are useful for viewing individual cells. These mice may be useful for visualizing UB growth and branching in vivo or in vitro. | ||
| 016567 | 129S.Cg-Tg(Hoxb7-rtTA*M2)2Cos/J | Repository- Live |
| RS-HTA2 transgenic mice have the homeobox B7 promoter/enhancer sequences driving expression of an optimized form of the reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator (rtTA*M2) protein. Hemizygotes are viable, fertile, and normal in size. When mated to a second transgenic strain carrying a gene of interest under the regulatory control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (tetO), expression of the gene of interest may be regulated by the tetracycline analog, doxycycline (dox). In the presence of dox, transcription of the target gene is induced in cells where rtTA is expressed. When bred to B6;SJL-Tg(tetop-lacZ)2Mam/J mice (Stock No. 002621), adult mice carrying both transgenes, which were maintained on Dox during pre and postnatal life, show strong expression of βgal in the renal collecting duct system, and embryos display strong expression throughout the Wolffian duct, ureteric bud, vas deferens, epididymis .....

| 007179 | 129S.Cg-Tg(UBC-cre/ERT2)1Ejb/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice hemizygous for this Cre-ERT2 transgene are viable and fertile. Mice from this founder line have strong tamoxifen-inducible cre activity in all reported tissue types. The Cre-ERT2 fusion protein consists of Cre recombinase fused to a triple mutant form of the human estrogen receptor; which does not bind its natural ligand (17β-estradiol) at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic estrogen receptor ligands 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT) and, with lesser sensitivity, ICI 182780. Restricted to the cytoplasm, Cre-ERT2 can only gain access to the nuclear compartment after exposure to OHT. To counteract the mixed estrogen agonist effects of tamoxifen injections, which can result in late fetal abortions in pregnant mice, progesterone may be coadministered. When these Cre-ERT2 mice are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, tamoxifen-inducible, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the flanked sequences in widespread cel .....

| 007915 | 129S.FVB-Tg(Amh-cre)8815Reb/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice harboring the Amh-cre transgene are viable and fertile, with expression of Cre recombinase directed by the testis Sertoli cell-specific promoter elements of the anti-Mullerian hormone (Amh) gene. Cre-recombinase activity is reported in testis Sertoli cells during male sexual development as early as E14.5, with no evidence for cre expression detected in other tissues examined. When Amh-cre transgenic males are bred with female mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequence specifically in testis Sertoli cells. These Amh-cre transgenic mice may be useful in generating conditional knockouts in testis Sertoli cells for studying male embryonic sexual differentiation and the regulation of spermatogenesis. | ||
| 003328 | 129S/Sv-Tg(Prm-cre)58Og/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice homozygous for this PrmCre transgene are viable and fertile. Embryonic stem cells containing recombinase transgenes that are expressed in the male germ line, but not in other tissues or in the embryonic stem cells themselves, substantially simplify the production of subtle or conditional mutations in mice. This strain shows that transgenes comprised of the mouse protamine 1 promoter and the Cre recombinase coding sequence mediate the efficient recombination of a cre target transgene in the male germ line, but not in other tissues. This system can be used for reducing the time, effort, and resources required to produce homologously recombined alleles in mice that have been secondarily rearranged by site-specific recombinase. | ||
| 010753 | 129S1/SvImJ-Chr 2MOLF/Ei/NaJ | Repository- Live |
| This strain represents one of a panel of inter-species chromosome substitution (or consomic) strains. Each strain carries a chromosome from the Mus musculus molossinus wild-derived strain MOLF/Ei introgressed into a Mus musculus domesticus 129S1/SvImJ background. The MOLF strain is separated from the common inbred strain progenitors by approximately 100,000 years. The strain set also includes a conplastic strain (mtMOLF/Ei) created by sequential backcrossing of the donor female to the host male. A conplastic strain carries the mitochondrial genome of the donor strain. These strains represent a tool for dissection of quantitative trait loci. | ||

| 007844 | 129S4/SvJae-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm2(FLP*)Sor/J | Repository- Live |
| Homozygous ROSA26Flpo mice are viable and fertile, with widespread expression of the mouse codon-optimized FLP recombinase (FLPo) variant of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FLP1 recombinase gene driven by the GT(ROSA)26Sor promoter. The GT(ROSA)26Sor promoter drives expression in a constitutive fashion from preimplantation onward. When bred with mice containing a FRT site flanked sequence of interest with the FRT sites in the same orientation, FLP-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the FRT-flanked sequence(s) in the offspring. Flpo exhibits enhanced recombinase activity compared to Flpe in vivo. | ||

| 003946 | 129S4/SvJaeSor-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1(FLP1)Dym/J | Repository- Live |
| Homozygous FLPeR mice are viable and fertile, with widespread expression of the FLPe variant of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FLP1 recombinase gene driven by the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. The FLPe recombinase variant exhibits enhanced thermostability with recombination activity being four-fold and ten-fold that of wild type FLP at 37C and 40C, respectively. The Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter drives expression from preimplantation onward and extensive target gene recombination can be achieved in most tissue types, including cells of the developing germ line. When bred with mice containing a frt-flanked sequence of interest, FLP-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the frt-flanked sequence(s) in the offspring. This FLP deleter strain may be useful for generating frt-FLP conditional mutations and serves as a source of FLP1-expressing primary cell lines. | ||

| Through high density SNP analysis, some AXB and BXA recombinant inbred strains were shown to be the same or nearly the same genetically. AXB13/PgnJ and AXB14/PgnJ are considered ?sister strains? being identical throughout much of the genome but differing in large regions of Chromosomes 11, 12, 13, and in small regions of a few other Chromosomes. Because these two strains are "near congenics" a nomenclature change has been made to update AXB14/PgnJ to AXB13a/PgnJ. In general, 'sister" strains (those with suffixes of a or b) should not be used for primary screening/QTL mapping. However, if a QTL is located in a region of difference in a sister recombinant inbred then this strain can serve as a ?near congenic? for additional analysis.

| Mice homozygous for this mT/mG mutation are viable and fertile. These mice possess loxP sites on either side of a membrane-targeted tdTomato (mT) cassette and express strong red fluorescence in all tissues and cell types examined. Tail or whole body epifluorescence is sufficient to identify mT/mG homozygotes. When bred to Cre recombinase expressing mice, the resulting offspring have the mT cassette deleted in the cre expressing tissue(s), allowing expression of the membrane-targeted EGFP (mG) cassette located just downstream. The donating investigator reports that the ACTB promoter allows stronger and persistent expression of the fluorescent proteins (especially in adult cells) compared to the endogenous Gt(ROSA) locus alone.

| These Z/EG transgenic mice constitutively express lacZ under the control of the CMV enhancer/chicken actin promoter. Expression is widespread with notable exceptions being liver and lung tissue. Expression is observed throughout all embryonic and adult stages. When crossed with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, lacZ expression is replaced with enhanced GFP expression in tissues expressing Cre. This double reporter system makes it possible to distinguish a lack of reporter expression from a lack of Cre recombinase expression while providing a means to assess Cre excision activity in live animals and cells.
As an example, when crossed to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in olfactory sensory neurons (see Stock No. 006668), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in lineage tracing.

| Mice that are hemizygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. All tissues from hemizygous animals display fluorescence in all cell types under appropriate lighting conditions. Notable exceptions to this phenotype are erythrocytes and adipocytes in which fluorescence is negligible or absent. 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 phenotype could vary from that originally described. We will modify the strain description if necessary as published results become available. | ||

| A conditional Cre-ERT2 (Cre recombinase - estrogen receptor T2) cassette was introduced to the gene. The ERT2 moiety retains the Cre recombinase in the cytoplasm until tamoxifen administration releases this inhibition, thus permitting the recombination of genomic loxP sites. Efficient tamoxifen-induced Cre-mediated recombination throughout the body has been demonstrated through crosses with a Cre-responsive beta galactosidase reporter strain. This strain enables temporal control of floxed gene expression in vivo and is reportedly more sensitive to tamoxifen than Stock No. 004847. Homozygotes are viable and fertile. | ||

When bred to cre expressing mice, offspring will have the STOP sequence deleted in tissues where Cre recombinase is present. The resulting GNZ fusion protein expression allows for enhanced (single cell level) visualization / resolution. The donating investigator reports that Cre recombinase activity can be visualized by direct GFP fluorescence, but the high resolution nuclear staining of GNZ may be best visualized by immunostaining for either GFP or beta-galactosidase. These ROSA26 GNZ mice are useful as a Cre reporter strain; expressing both G ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||

| Mice homozygous for this bicistronic "yet40" allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The IRES-EYFP is inserted downstream of the endogenous stop codon, allowing for normal expression of the endogenous gene and simultaneous EYFP reporter expression. ELISA assays confirm that p40 protein is expressed at similar levels in homozygous mutant and wildtype mice. The EYFP reporter marks dendritic cell (DC) and macrophage lineage cells that produce p40 following stimulation with toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands both in vivo and in vitro. These mice may be useful for labeling activated IL12/23 p40 expressing cells in studies of immunology and immunity, TLR signal cascades, cancer immunity, and vaccine development. | ||

Cre activity is demonstrable in the hypothalmus (arcuate, dorsomedial (DMH), lateral (LH), and ventromedial (VMH) nuclei), limbic and cortical brain regions (basolateral amygdaloid nucleus (BLA), piriform cortex (Pir), and lateral entorhinal cortex (LEnt)), and retrosplenial cortex. When bred with a mouse containing a loxP site-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the flanked genome in tissues that normally express the gene. This strain has been used in virus-assisted mapping of neural inputs and may be useful in studies of neural features of feeding behaviors. | ||

| Mice homozygous for this RiboTag allele are viable and fertile, with a targeted mutation of the ribosomal protein L22 (Rpl22) locus harboring a loxP-flanked wildtype C-terminal exon 4 followed by an identical C-terminal exon 4 that is tagged with three copies of the hemagglutinin (HA) epitope before the stop codon. Prior to exposure to Cre recombinase, RiboTag mice express the wildtype RPL22 protein (15 kDa). When the RiboTag mice are bred to cre-expressing mice, offspring will have the floxed wildtype exon 4 deleted in the cre-expressing tissue and subsequent use of the downstream HA epitope-tagged exon 4 as the terminal exon. The 23 kDa HA epitope-tagged ribosomal protein (RPL22HA) is incorporated into actively translating polyribosomes. These RiboTag mice allow Cre-mediated HA epitope tagging of ribosomes from user-defined cell types and/or immunoprecipitation of ribosomes bound to mRNA from those specific cell types. | ||

| Homozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Homozygotes have a deficiency in the B-1 subset of B-lymphocytes along with a concomitant reduction in serum IgM. Their ability to respond to T-cell-dependent antigens is severely impaired, and they fail to form splenic germinal centers. In addition to disrupting the targeted gene, the targeting construct also introduced a cre cassette into exon 2 of the targeted gene, effectively placing cre expression under the control of the endogenous promoter. The Cd19 promoter specifically directs cre expression at the earliest stages and throughout B-lymphocyte development and differentiation. Although homozygous mutant mice are Cd19-deficient, heterozygous mice are phenotypically normal, and can be used for specific deletion of loxP-flanked (floxed) targets in B-lymphocytes.

Forkhead box G1 is required for telencephalon development and is expressed specifically in the telencephalon and discrete head structures. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in tissue-specific deletion of the target. Recombination occurs in the telencephalon, anterior optic vesicle (developing lens and retina), otic vesicle, facial and head ectoderm, olfactory epithelium, mid-hindbrain junction and pharyngeal pouches. Mice that are homozygous for the targeted mutation die perinatally. Heterozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size. On the C57BL/6 background, forebrain volume in heterozygotes is substantially reduced especially in the cerebral cortex (40.7%), striatum (29.7%), and hippocampus (18.6%).

Cre recombinase expression is induced by transcription of the immunoglobulin gamma1 heavy chain constant region gene (Cg1) segment and is detected as early as 4 days in 25-50% of germinal center B cells following immunization with T cell dependent antigens. By 12-14 days, 75-85% of germinal center B cells exhibit Cre-mediated recombination. Cre is detected mostly in IgG1, but also in IgG2 and IgA-expressing germinal center B cells as well as a small number of IgM+ germinal center B cells precursors.
Homozygotes exhibit a reduction in IgG1+ memory B cells and in IgG1 serum antibody titers. When bred with a mouse carrying a loxP site-flanked DNA sequence, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the flanked genome segment in tissues that express the Cre transgene.

| Homozygous mice are viable and fertile, with the Axin2lacZ (or conductinlacZ) mutation that both abolishes endogenous Axin2 gene function and expresses NLS-lacZ under the control of the endogenous Axin2 promoter/enhancer regions. Homozygous mice exhibit cranial skull defects and malformations of skull structures; a phenotype resembling craniosynostosis in humans. Specifically, homozygous mice show an obvious reduction in head growth within the first 3 weeks after birth, resulting from developmental defects of the cranial skull (premature fusion of cranial sutures) at early postnatal stages. Axin2-deficient mice have abnormal calvarial morphogenesis/osteoblast development.

| Mice homozygous for this EGFP "knock-in" are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any behavioral abnormalities when maintained under barrier conditions. Lymph nodes and spleen show no endogenous gene expression. Lymphocytes from heterozygotes, but not homozygotes, show endogenous ligand binding. EGFP expression is restricted to spleen and lymph nodes, specifically activated/memory T cells, with a slightly higher intensity in homozygotes. Homozygous null mice show decreased EGFP+ CD1d-reactive NKT patrolling efficiency and decreased severity of induced acute hepatitis, while heterozygotes and wildtype mice show no differences.

| These 5172 3-state Cre-sensitive (5172 3SCS) mice contain a construct designed to insert (from 5' to 3') a floxed-STOP cassette, tdTomato open reading frame (ORF), and a floxed-internal ribosome entry site (IRES) fused to an enhanced green fluorescent protein (GFP) ORF. The IRES-eGFP element was flanked by 5172 mutant loxP sites (which recombine at 30% the efficiency of wildtype loxP sites). This vector was inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus allowing for widespread expression. The floxed-STOP cassette causes termination of transcription and results in no expression of either fluorophore. When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the floxed-STOP cassette deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s). This deletion results in tdTomato and/or GFP expression depending on how much Cre-recombinase the cells express. When crossed with a strain expressing low amounts of Cre recombinase, partial recombination results in tdTomato+ GFP For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||

EGFP fluorescence is observed in crypt base columnar cells in small intestine (aka stem cells of the small intestine) and colon. Cre-ERT2 fusion gene activity is inducible; observed in the same cells only following tamoxifen administration.

This gene trap mutation abolishes endogenous spectrin beta 3 (Spnb3) gene function and expresses a β-galactosidase (β-geo) reporter fusion protein. In these mice synapse morphology is altered, and there is a reduction in synapse-associated proteins, EAAT4, EAAT1, GluRδ, IP3R, and NCAM 140, leading to a failure to assemble transporters, receptors, and adhesion molecules. These Spnb3-/- mice may be useful as a lacZ reporter for Spnb3 expression or as a knockout model for studying glutamate transport dynamics, synaptogenesis, seizures, and neuronal damage. | ||

| The Id2-CreERT2 knockin allele was designed to both abolish inhibitor of DNA binding 2 (Id2) gene function and express CreERT2 fusion protein from the Id2 promoter/enhancer elements. Cre-ERT2 fusion gene activity is inducible and can be observed following tamoxifen administration. As such, when Id2-CreERT2 knockin mice are bred with mice containing loxP-flanked sequences, tamoxifen-inducible Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequences in the Id2-expressing cells of the offspring.
No mRNA or protein expression from the Id2-CreERT2 allele is observed. The donating investigator reports that homozygous mice are runted with defective lung alveolarization.

As maternal imprinting silences the Ndn allele, only the paternally inherited Ndn allele is expressed. The Ndntm2Stw (ΔNdn-lacZ or Ndn-lacZ) knock-in allele abolishes endogenous gene function and expresses a β-galactosidase fusion protein. Under control of the upstream promoter/enhancer elements, lacZ expression is directed to the same tissues as the wildtype gene. For example, β-galactosidase expression during embryogenesis is highest in hypothalamus, but also detected in other central nervous system tissues (pons and medulla, spinal cord), peripheral nervous system (dorsal root ganglia), and some non-neuronal tissues (tongue, cartilage brown fat).

| Mice heterozygous for this HB9cre targeted mutation are viable and fertile, with cre expression replacing HB9 (Hlxb9 or Mnx1) expression. Under control of the endogenous upstream elements, cre expression is directed to motor neurons. In heterozygotes, cre expression coincides with HB9 expression. Homozygous HB9cre mice die at or soon after birth, with expression of Cre recombinase likewise directed to motor neurons but no expression of endogenous HB9. When these HB9cre mice are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination in the resulting offspring leads to deletion of the flanked sequences in Mnx1/HB9 expressing cells; making them useful in neurodevelopmental studies of homeobox genes, motor neuron function and differentiation, and the central nervous system. | ||

Under control of the upstream promoter/enhancer elements, lacZ expression is directed to the same tissues as the wild-type gene (for example, β-galactosidase expression during embryogenesis is detected by E9.5 in the mesonephric vesicles). Homozygous mice die shortly after birth with open eyelids, bilateral cleft of the secondary palate, and thickened tympanic rings. Heterozygotes are viable and fertile. These Osr2-lacZ mice may be useful as a lacZ reporter for Osr2 expression or as a knockout model for studying developmental biology (craniofacial, limb, and kidney). | ||

| A targeting vector was designed to insert an internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (eYFP) fusion protein, downstream of the endogenous stop codon of the arginase (Arg1) gene. These homozygous YARG mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. Located in the cytoplasm of the liver and specifically in macrophages, arginase I converts L-arginine into L-ornithine and urea as the final step in the urea cycle. L-arginine can also be catabolized into nitric oxide (NO), a secreted free radical which causes tissues damage and is toxic to bacteria. Arginase I suppresses NO production by decreasing the amount of L-arginine available to the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzyme for conversion into NO and other reactive oxygen species (ROS).

| Homozygous FLPeR mice are viable and fertile, with widespread expression of the FLPe variant of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FLP1 recombinase gene driven by the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. The FLPe recombinase variant exhibits enhanced thermostability with recombination activity being four-fold and ten-fold that of wild type FLP at 37C and 40C, respectively. The Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter drives expression from preimplantation onward and extensive target gene recombination can be achieved in most tissue types, including cells of the developing germ line. When bred with mice containing a frt-flanked sequence of interest, FLP-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the frt-flanked sequence(s) in the offspring. This FLP deleter strain may be useful for generating frt-FLP conditional mutations and serves as a source of FLP1-expressing primary cell lines.

The insertion creates a null allele for the Meox2 gene. Homozygous mice are viable on this background but exhibit an overall reduction in muscle mass and the absence of specific muscles resulting in abnormal limb posture and reduced motility. This phenotype is variable. As many as 80% of homozygotes are severely affected, fail to thrive and die before weaning. Some homozygotes (10%) exhibit clefting of the secondary palate. These mice can be utilized as a deleter strain for loxP flanked DNA and provide an alternative to tetraploid embryo analysis. | ||

Homozygotes display abnormal rib development and some fusions of the cervical or thoracic vertebrae. This mutant mouse strain represents a model that may be useful in studies of skeletal development.
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. This is the case for the strain above. It should be noted that the phenotype could vary from that originally described. We will modify the strain description if necessary as p ..... | ||

| These PGRP-L mice contain a targeting vector designed to insert an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) immediately downstream from the initiation sequence of the peptidoglycan recognition protein, 2 (Pglyrp2) gene, abolishing gene expression. Homozygous mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical abnormalities. PGRP-L, the longest member of a family of innate immune recognition molecules, recognize peptidoglycan components of bacterial cell walls. Expressed mainly in liver, PGRP-L is secreted and multimerizes in the serum. Peritoneal macrophages from these PGRP-L-deficient mice showed a decrease in interleukin 6 (IL6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) production when stimulated with E. coli or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), but comparable amounts when stimulated with S. aureus, C. albicans, gram-positive or -negative peptidoglycans, suggesting a redundant pathway is involved. These mice may be useful for visualizing PGRP-L expre ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||

| In Ox40-/- mice, the targeted mutation replaces exons 1-4 of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4 (Tnfrsf4 or Ox40) locus with a floxed neomycin (neo) resistance cassette, abolishing gene function. Homozygous mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. Ox40-/- CD4+ T cells Ox40-/- CD4+ T cells demonstrate defects in clonal expansion associated with impaired survival of activated cells.

| Mice homozygous for the GCN2.KO4 mutant locus (also called GCN2.KO4-, GCN2-, GCN2.KO4ex, or GCN2-KO) are viable, fertile and overtly indistinguishable from wild-type mice, with little if any mRNA expressed from the mutant locus. Homozygous GCN2-deficiency is associated with altered inflammatory responses and altered stress responses, including sensitivity to nutritional deficiencies and aberrant eating behavior. As GCN2 is a protein kinase that phosphorylates eIF2 (eukaryotic initiation factor 2) in response to environmental stresses (amino acid starvation, proteasome inhibition and UV irradiation) to reduce global translation and activate stress-related transcription factors (such as NF-kappaB) to alleviate cellular injury or alternatively induce apoptosis, these GCN2.KO4 mutant mice may be useful for such immunology, inflammatory, immunity cell biology, or neurobiology research.

When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, the resulting offspring will have the sequences encoding the transmembrane and the cytoplasmic domains deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s). These f(α8) mutant mice may be useful in generating conditional mutations for studying the role of Itga8 transmembrane cell adhesion receptors in neuronal function in the developing and adult central nervous system, including intracellular signaling, behavior, synaptic plasticity, and memory formation.

| This strain expresses a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and a mutant form of the human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain from the endogenous Shh locus. The mutant human estrogen receptor does not bind natural ligand at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic ligand, 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Restricted to the cytoplasm, the Cre/ESR1 protein can only gain access to the nuclear compartment after exposure to tamoxifen. Tamoxifen administration induces Cre recombinase expression in all cells that express the endogenous gene resulting in the deletion of the first 35 base pairs following the ATG. Homozygous mice are not viable or fertile. Heterozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of limb patterning and development. | ||

| Mice homozygous for this SM22alpha-CreKI allele are viable and fertile. These mice have a Cre-recombinase gene inserted into the endogenous transgelin (SM22alpha) locus. The donating investigator reports that this mutation results in a loss of function of the targeted gene. Cre recombinase activity is shown in adult smooth muscle cells (such as arteries, veins, and visceral organs) and cardiac myocytes, but activity is not observed in the same embryonic tissues. It has been the experience of The Jackson Laboratory that optimal breeding is achieved by mating heterozygous females to homozygous males as female mortality post gestation has been noted in our colony. These SM22alpha-CreKI mice may be useful for Cre-lox technology applications in studying smooth muscle and cardiac gene function, as well as cardiovascular disease. | ||

| These Ift20flox mice harbor loxP sites flanking exons 2-3 (encoding the first 71 codons including the start codon) of the intraflagellar transport 20 homolog (Chlamydomonas) locus. The primary cilium is a microtubule-based antenna-like structure that emanates from the surface of virtually all cells in the mammalian body. The primary cilium functions as a sensory organelle (mechano-, chemo-, photo-receptor) that receives signals from other cells/the environment, and transmits these signals to the nucleus to elicit a cellular response. Most types of eukaryotic cilia and flagella are assembled and maintained by the process of intraflagellar transport (IFT). During IFT, large protein complexes (IFT particles) are transported along the ciliary microtubules under the ciliary membrane. IFT particle proteins organize into at least three distinct complexes called complex A, complex B and the Golgi IFT complex. The unique role of Ift20 in both complex B as well as the Golgi IFT .....

| Mice homozygous for this f(α3) conditional allele are viable and fertile, with loxP sites flanking exons 11-18 of the Itga3 (integrin alpha 3 (or alpha3-integrin (α3-integrin)) gene. When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, the resulting offspring will have the floxed region deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s): such deletion leads to a non-sense mutation from direct splicing of exon 10 to exon 19 and results in a truncated peptide that is predicted to be missing more than half of the wild-type sequence, including those that encode the transmembrane and the cytoplasmic domains. These f(α3) mutant mice may be useful in generating conditional mutations for studying the role of Itga3 transmembrane cell adhesion receptors in neuronal functions in the developing and adult central nervous system, including synaptic plasticity and memory formation.

| In Ox40-cre mice, the targeted mutation inserts an internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-Cre recombinase into exon 3 of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4 (Tnfrsf4 or Ox40) locus, abolishing gene function. Homozygous mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. Cre recombinase expression is observed when Ox40 is induced during T cell activation. Ox40-cre induction is strong in activated CD4+ T cells (approximately 70% of memory CD4+ T cells have undergone Ox40-cre-mediated recombination in these mice). It is weaker and variable in activated CD8+ T cells. Regulatory CD4+ T cells constitutively express OX40 and thus ~90% of them have undergone Cre recombination in Ox40-cre mice. A minority (~15%) of the thymic precursors of naive CD4+ T cells express sufficient Ox40-cre to undergo Cre recombination. Ox40-cre is also expressed in the male (but not female) germline and this must be considered carefully when establishing breeding schemes. These mi .....

| Dermo1-cre (Twist2-cre) mutant mice harbor a Cre recombinase "knock-in" allele that also abolishes endogenous Twist2 gene function. Heterozygotes are viable and fertile, while homozygotes (twist-2-/-) die a few days after birth. Under control of the upstream promoter/enhancer elements, cre expression is observed in a pattern consistent with the wildtype gene; Cre recombinase activity is reported in mesoderm as early as embryonic day 9.5, in mesodermal tissues such as branchial arches and somites, and in condensed mesenchyme-derived chondrocytes and osteoblasts. When heterozygotes are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequences in Dermo1-expressing tissues of the offspring. Homozygous mice exhibit elevated expression of proinflammatory cytokines resulting in perinatal death from cachexia (wasting), as well as progressive growth retardation, impaired movement, th .....

| In this transgenic strain, deletion of loxP-flanked genes occurs in all tissues, including germ cells. The cre gene in this strain is under the transcriptional control of a human cytomegalovirus minimal promoter and is likely to be expressed before implantation during early embryogenesis. It also appears that the cre gene is X-linked since transgene transmission through males is restricted to female offspring. 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. This is the case for the strain above. It should be noted that the phenotype could vary from that originally described.

| These mice contain loxP sites on either side of exon 23. Homozygous mice are viable and fertile with no gross phenotypic or behavioral abnormalities. Expression of the targeted allele is indistinguishable from wild-type despite the frt-flanked neomycin cassette. Cre-mediated recombination (resulting in deletion of exon 23) in the germline leads to developmental arrest at embryonic day 7.5 (E7.5). Tissue specific deletion has been shown to result in loss of microRNA (miRNA) processing. Mutant mice can be used to generate cell/tissue-specific deletions of the endogenous gene for applications in embryonic development, translation, protein processing and miRNA/siRNA regulation of gene expression. For example, when crossed to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in mesenchyme (see Stock No. 005584), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of limb morphogenesis.

| Homozygous mice are viable and fertile with normal T and B cell development. These "Foxp3EGFP" mice co-express EGFP and the regulatory T cell-specific transcription factor Foxp3 under the control of the endogenous promoter. EGFP expression accurately identifies the Foxp3+ T cell population (more than 97% of Foxp3+ T cells were EGFP+), and Foxp3 mRNA expression strictly segregates with EGFP+ T cells. Due to X-inactivation in females, the number of EGFP+CD4+ T cells found in the peripheral blood of heterozygous females was approximately half that of hemizygote males. CD4+EGFP+ cells also exhibit normal regulatory T cell suppression of effector cell proliferation (following stimulation with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 monclonal antibodies ). Some EGFP expression is noted in a small population of CD8+ thymocytes. These mutant mice may be useful in immunological studies, including studie .....

When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in striated muscle-specific deletion of the flanked genome. Specifically, these HSA-Cre79 (or ACTA1-Cre) transgenic mice were originally used to breed with mice heterozygous for a deletion of exon 7 and a loxP-flanked exon 7 mutation on homologous chromosomes of the Smn1 gene (see Stock No. 006138 or Stock No. 006146).

| 005703 | B6.Cg-Tg(ACTFLPe)9205Dym/J | Repository- Live |
| This transgenic strain expresses a variant of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FLP1 recombinase gene under the direction of the human ACTB promoter. The FLPe recombinase variant exhibits enhanced thermostability with recombination activity being four-fold and ten-fold that of wildtype FLP at 37oC and 40oC, respectively. Mice that are hemizygous for the transgenic allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Recombinase activity is detected in a wide variety of tissues (spinal cord, heart, gonad, adrenal) as early as embryonic day 10.5. This deleter strain is a suitable alternative to, and complement with the Cre-loxP system for in vivo genetic engineering.

| Mice hemizygous for this AQP2-Cre transgene are viable and fertile. Transgenic cre activity, directed by the mouse aquaporin 2 promoter, is observed in kidney cells (collecting duct) and testes (sperm). When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the flanked sequence. In such breedings, maternal inheritance of the transgene is recommended for kidney-specific recombinase activity as males express cre in sperm as well as kidney tissues. These AQP2-Cre mice may be used to generate conditional mutations in the renal collecting duct for studying nephrology, physiology, metabolism, or type II diabetes. In addition, cre expression in sperm may be useful in generating conditional mutations in multiple or all tissues in the resulting offspring. | ||

| Mice homozygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These "BAT-GAL" transgenic mice are a reporter strain that express beta-galactosidase in the presence of activated beta-catenin. The transgene expresses the lacZ gene under the control of a regulatory sequence consisting of seven consensus LEF/TCF-binding motifs upstream of the Xenopus siamois gene minimal promoter. Transgenic mice display beta-galactosidase activity beginning at embryonic day 6.0 in the posterior side of the proximal epiblast. Beta-galactosidase expression is detectable in the posterior primitive streak and node at gastrulation, and progresses to the paraxial mesoderm and notochord. Beta-galactosidase activity in developing and adult nervous tissue mimics the pattern of Wnt signaling. When bred to other mutant strains, this reporter strain may be useful for identifying mutations that affect the Wnt-signalling pa .....

| Mice homozygous for the transgene exhibit robust and widespread expression of monomeric red fluorescent protein-1 (mRFP1) in embryonic stem cells, embryos, and adults. Unlike tetrameric or dimeric fluorescent proteins, high levels of mRFP1 expression do not affect cell morphology, developmental potential, viability, and fertility of homozygous mice. Various optical imaging modalities can be used to visualize mRFP1 expressing cells in culture, in embryos and adult mice. Cells from transgenic mRFP1 mice, sampled along with green and cyan fluorescent cells from other mice, show clearly discernable fluorescence. This mouse may be useful in studies of mRFP1 cell lines, transplantation, embryo chimera experiments, and fluorescent imaging and technology development.

Using crosses to a reporter strain, variegated germ line (testis) and a small monocyte-enriched population expression is also reported. When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequence(s) in the offspring. These hCD2-iCre transgenic mice may be useful for generating conditional mutations in T cells and B cells. Of note, this hCD2-iCre strain (Stock No. 008520) allows reliable deletion/gene targeting to be focused to T cells and B cells, whereas the Vav-iCre strain (Stock No. 008610) allows targeting throughout the entire hematopoietic compartment.

These Ksp1.3/Cre transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse cadherin 16 (Cdh16 or Ksp-cadherin) promoter. Cre recombinase expression follows expression of the endogenous gene and is detected in the epithelial cells of developing nephrons, ureteric bud, mesonephric tubules, Wolffian duct, and Mullerian duct. In the adult mouse expression is limited to the renal tubules especially the collecting ducts, loops of Henle and distal tubules. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the flanked sequence in the offspring.

| Mice hemizygous for the ChAT-mhChR2-YFP BAC transgene (or ChAT-ChR2-YFP BAC transgene) are viable and fertile, with expression of the mhChR2::YFP fusion protein directed to cholinergic neuronal populations by the mouse choline acetyltransferase (Chat or ChAT) promoter/enhancer regions on the BAC transgene. The mhChR2::YFP fusion protein is composed of a mammalian codon-optimized Chlamydomonas reinhardtii-derived channelrhodopsin-2 that was modified to harbor a gain-of-function H134R substitution (mhChR2; also called hChR2-H134R) fused in-frame with an enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (EYFP). The mhChR2 is designed to cause larger stationary photocurrents compared to ChR2. The bacterial opsins are retinal-binding proteins that provide light-dependent ion transport and sensory functions to a family of halophilic bacteria; and this mhChR2 functions as a blue light-driven cation channel that depolarizes the cell and causes action potentials.

| Fos/EGFP transgenic mice express a fusion gene consisting of the murine FBJ osteosarcoma oncogene (Fos) and enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP). Hemizygous Fos/EGFP mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. Fos is a member of the activator protein-1 family of transcription factors and serves as a marker for neural activity. At basal state, Fos is expressed at low levels in the cerebellum, olfactory bulb, hippocampus, and neocortex. Fos expression is induced by a wide array of stimuli, including seizure, cortical injury, dehydration, and pain. In these mice, the Fos/EGFP fusion protein is expressed in recently activated neurons. These mice may be useful for visualizing Fos-expression in stimulated neurons, and for studying changes in neuron excitability and synaptic efficacy. | ||

| Mice hemizygous for this GAD67-GFP transgene are viable and fertile. In the hippocampus, GAD67-GFP (line 3) mice selectively express enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in newborn dentate granule cells. At two weeks of age, EGFP is expressed in large numbers of dentate granule cells, and the number of EGFP-positive cells diminishes with age in a pattern consistent with the postnatal development of dentate granule cells/age-related reduction in adult neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus. The EGFP expression in newborn dentate granule cells begins within the first week of cell division and disappears as newborn neurons mature (about 4 weeks postmitotic), and EGFP positive dentate granule cells also express the newborn neuron markers PSA-NCAM and doublecortin. The bright labeling of newborn neurons with EGFP makes it possible to visualize the details of dendrites, which reach the outer edge of the molecular layer, and

Proliferating cells that express the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV-TK) transgene will metabolize ganciclovir (GCV) to toxic nucleotide analogues and undergo cell death. Transgene-derived HSV-TK is present exclusively in cells expressing endogenous Gfap. This coexpression occurs in brain astrocytes and adult neural stem cells, enteric glia, hepatic stellate cells, and unknown cells in heart, lung, kidney, adrenal, and spleen. Chronic GCV treatment for 21 days depletes GFAP-positive adult neural stem cells from forebrain proliferative zones. GCV treatment eliminated growth of primary multipotent neurospheres cultured from the germinal zones of postnatal and adult, but not early embryonic, transgenic mice.

These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse integrin alpha X (Cd11c) promoter. Cre-mediated recombination is detected in more than 95% of conventional CD11chigh dendritic cells both from lymphoid organs and from non-lymphoid tissues such as lung and epidermis, and in 50-80% of plasmacytoid dendritic cells. The dendritic cell compartment of transgenic mice is normal. Relatively low amounts of recombination are detected in lymphocytes (<10%), NK cells (12%), and myeloid cells (<1%). No increase of recombination frequency was observed in CD11clow- activated T cells.

| Mice hemizygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase (iCre, improved cre) under the control of the mouse kidney androgen regulated protein (Kap). Cre recombinase expression is detected in the proximal tubule cells of the renal cortex in male mice. Female mice do not express the transgene unless treated with androgen (testosterone). When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the targeted gene in the proximal tubule cells of the kidney. The Donating Investigator reports that for transgenic mice on the C57BL/6J background (both male and female), the transgene needs to be induced with exogenous androgen. The Donating Investigator recommends using a testosterone pellet implanted subcutaneously, which results in a modest level of transgene induction 10 d .....

| 012837 | B6.Cg-Tg(Lck-cre)3779Nik/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice hemizygous for the Lck-cre transgene are viable, fertile, and normal in size. These mice contain a Cre-recombinase gene driven by the distal promoter of the lymphocyte protein tyrosine kinase (Lck) gene. Cre recombinase expression is delayed, and is only observed in T cells after T cell receptor α (Tcra) locus rearrangement and after the cells have reached the TCRhi stage of thymocyte development. When these transgenic mice are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the floxed sequences in the Cre recombinase-expressing tissues of the offspring. These mice are useful for studying the consequences of mutations induced after positive selection in the thymus. | ||

| Ly6a-GFP transgenic mice have an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) under the control of murine lymphocyte antigen 6 complex, locus A (Ly6a) promoter. Hemizygous Ly6a-GFP mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The Ly6a promoter directs the expression of GFP in all functional repopulating adult hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the adult bone marrow, and several other hematopoietic cell types. The GFP transgene expression pattern generally corresponds to that of Sca-1, a glycoprotein-I-linked cell-surface glycoprotein used routinely as a marker of adult hematopoietic stem cells. These mice may be useful for the visualizing and sorting of hematopoietic stem cells. | ||
| 003556 | B6.Cg-Tg(Mx1-cre)1Cgn/J | Repository- Live |
| The Cre recombinase is under the control of the Mx1 promoter. This promoter is silent in healthy mice, but can be induced to high levels of transcription by administration of interferon alpha, interferon beta, or synthetic double-stranded RNA (such as poly I:C). When combined with a mutant carrying a gene that has been flanked by loxP recognition sites, the expression of Cre recombinase causes the flanked gene to be removed. This provides researchers with the capability to induce the "knockout" at any time during development. There was ~1% background recombination seen in mice not treated with interferon. The percent deletion of the targeted gene varied depending on tissue type, presumably due to the amount of interferon-responsive cells present or to the availability of interferon in each organ.
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 ..... | ||

| Mice hemizygous for the smMHC/Cre/eGFP transgene (smMHCCre/eGFP) are viable and fertile, with the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain (smMHC or Myh11) promoter directing bicistronic Cre and EGFP protein expression to smooth muscle cells during development as well as in the adult mouse. Hemizygotes from founder line SMCG2 (SM2Cre/GFP) display intense EGFP fluorescence restricted to vascular and nonvascular smooth muscle, with strong concordance between cre expression and EGFP fluorescence (verifying the use of fluorescence as a marker for conditional gene recombination). When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, the resulting offspring can have Cre-mediated recombination of the flanked sequence in smooth muscle. Homozygotes are viable and fertile, with smaller litter sizes and a higher incidence of perinatal mortality. These smMHC/Cre/eGFP transgenic mice may be useful in studies utilizing "Cre-lox" technology or fluoresc ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||

| Podocin-Cre mice (mice harboring the p2.5P-Cre transgene) are viable and fertile, with expression of Cre recombinase directed to podocytes within kidney glomeruli by the human podocin (NPHS2) promoter/enhancer region. Cre-recombinase activity is reported in podocytes during late capillary loop stage of glomerular development and persists in podocytes of mature glomeruli, with no evidence for cre expression detected in other tissues examined. Embryonic Cre-recombinase activity is also reported as early as 8.5 dpc. When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the sequence. These Podocin-Cre mice (mice harboring the p2.5P-Cre transgene) may be useful in generating conditional knockouts for studying the role of podocyte nephrobiology in renal disorders. | ||

Mice that are hemizygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Initial studies utilizing a reporter strain carrying a beta galactosidase transgene whose expression is dependent on Cre-mediated recombination indicate that cre is primarily expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system with a few isolated kidney and heart cells also expressing activity. The donating investigator indicates that Cre recombinase activity is present in nervous tissue by embryonic day 11.

These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse Purkinje cell protein (Pcp2). Cre recombinase expression is detected in Purkinje cells of the cerebellar folia and retinal bipolar cells. Expression was not found in spinal cord, heart, liver, kidney or cornea. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the targeted gene in the offspring.

| These transgenic mice have a tamoxifen inducible Cre-mediated recombination system driven by the mouse Plp1, proteolipid protein (myelin) 1 promoter. The transgene insert contains a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and a mutant form of the mouse estrogen receptor ligand binding domain. The mutant mouse estrogen receptor does not bind natural ligand at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic ligand, 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Restricted to the cytoplasm, the Cre/Esr1 protein can only gain access to the nuclear compartment after exposure to tamoxifen. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site flanked sequence of interest, the offspring are useful for generating tamoxifen-induced, Cre-mediated targeted deletions. Tamoxifen administration allows for ablation of predetermined genes in oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells, and will also induce Cre recombination in developing embryos of treated mothers and in cultured cells derived from transgenic mice.

These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the paired related homeobox 1 promoter. Cre recombinase expression closely patterns endogenous gene expression and is detectable by embryonic day 9.5. Some recombination occurs in the female germline. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the flanked sequence in early limb bud mesenchyme. This strain represents an effective tool for generating tissue specific-targeted mutants useful in studies of limb bud development and patterning. | ||

| Mice hemizygous for the ChAT(BAC)-eGFP (ChATBAC-eGFP) transgene are viable and fertile, with the endogenous choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) transcriptional regulatory elements (cholinergic gene locus) directing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) protein expression during development as well as in the adult mouse. As such, EGFP is expressed in central and peripheral cholinergic neurons, including cell bodies and processes of the somatic motor, somatic sensory, and parasympathetic nervous system in gastrointestinal, respiratory, urogenital, cardiovascular, and other peripheral organ systems and neuromuscular junctions. These ChAT(BAC)-eGFP transgenic mice allow fluorescent visualization of cholinergic elements of the central and peripheral nervous system and may be useful for studying cholinergic neurotransmission and neuromuscular coupling. | ||

These transgenic mice express the reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator (rtTA) protein under the control of the human SFTPC, surfactant, pulmonary-associated protein C, promoter. In situ hybridization detects rtTA gene product (mRNA) in lung peripheral epithelial cells from adult mice and 15 postconception day aged embryos from doxycycline treated dams. Induction of transgene expression is detected as early as postconception day 12.5 when the pregnant female is treated with doxycycline. When mated to a second transgenic strain carrying a gene of interest under the regulatory control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (tetO), expression of the target gene may be regulated by the tetracycline analog, doxycycline (dox); in the presence of dox, transcription of the target gene is induced in cells where rtTA is .....

| Mice hemizygous for the Sox2Cre transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse SRY-box containing gene 2 promoter. When these transgenic mice are bred with mice containing loxP-flanked sequences, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequences in Sox2-expressing tissues in the offspring. Specifically, Cre recombinase activity is detected in the epiblast cells at embryonic day 6.5, with little or no activity in other cells at gastrulation. Some activity is also detected in extra embryonic derivatives of the epiblast, the yolk sac mesoderm and amnion. No Cre recombinase activity is detected in primitive endoderm derived tissues, visceral endoderm. The phenotype of homozygous mice has not been characterized to date (April 2011).

| Mice hemizygous for this Osx1-GFP::Cre transgene are viable and fertile.
The transgene carries both tTA under the regulation of the osterix (Sp7) promoter and, just downstream, a tetracycline responsive element (TRE; tetO)-controlled GFP/Cre fusion protein. In the absence of the tetracycline analog doxycycline, EGFP-Cre fusion protein expression is restricted to the osteoblast lineage throughout embryonic and early postnatal development. Fusion protein activity is largely absent from chondrocytes. When these transgenic animals are mated to transgenic strains that carry loxP-flanked (floxed) conditional alleles, Cre-mediated recombination of the floxed allele in the double mutant animals is placed under the regulation of doxycycline (dox) such that dox adminstration prevents fusion protein expression and recombination. The donating investigator suggests that the mice be maintained on dox-treated water to avoid incidental effects of tTA expression (e.g., malocclusion). Th .....

Using crosses to reporter strains, cre activity is confirmed in catecholaminergic cells and is present in many of the projection areas of these neuronal populations. A mosaic of cre activity is noted in TH-positive neurons. Several other areas that are not typically thought to have active TH expression, including the lateral septal nucleus, accessory olfactory bulb, suparafascicular thalamus, and pretectal area, also exhibit Cre recombinase activity (possibly as a result of TH promoter activity in precursor cell populations or ectopic expression from the exogenous TH promoter).

| Hemizygous transgenic mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO). When hemizygotes are bred with another transgenic mouse expressing either reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA) under the control of tissue-specific promoters, Cre recombinase expression and Cre-mediated recombination in the appropriate tissues of the bitransgenic offspring can be regulated with the tetracycline analog, doxycycline. This strain represents an effective tool for generating inducible tissue specific-targeted mutants to study cell lineage during development.

| The alpha-MHC-MerCreMer transgene has the mouse Myh6 promoter (myosin, heavy polypeptide 6, cardiac muscle, alpha; alpha-MHC) directing expression of a tamoxifen-inducible Cre recombinase (MerCreMer) to juvenile and adult cardiac myocytes. Mice homozygous for the alpha-MHC-MerCreMer transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Cre recombinase expression in heart tissue is confirmed by western blot. Southern blot confirmed heart cell specificity compared to brain, kidney, lung, liver, and skeletal muscle. Insertion of this transgene and its protein show no changes in echocardiography, heart mass or pathology, or hypertrophy marker genes compared to nontransgenic littermates. Of note, the MerCreMer double fusion protein has substantially greater Cre recombinase activity with less promiscuity compared with the CreMer single fusion protein.

| Mice hemizygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Expression of the transgene is directed by a neurogenin 3 promoter. Tissues where Cre recombinase expression is detected include the small intestine (base of intestinal crypts) and fetal pancreatic epithelial cells. Cre activity has been shown in islets of the adult pancreas, small intestine enteroendocrine cells, endocrine portions of the stomach, all pancreatic endocrine cells, and in some non-endocrine intestinal cells. When bred with a mouse containing a loxP site-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in deletion of the flanked gene in the tissues that normally express neurogenin 3.

Cre recombinase transcript (mRNA) is detected in lung and colon analyzed by RT-PCR. Transgene expression (mRNA by RT-PCR) and Cre recombinase activity is not detected in skin or heart tissues. Recombinase activity is detected in lung and colon tissue, specifically in resident mast cells. Transgene expression and Cre recombinase activity is not detected in cultured bone marrow derived mast cells by RT-PCR analysis or FACS analysis. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in tissue-specific deletion of the target.

| This line carries a cre transgene under the control of the adenovirus EIIa promoter that targets expression of Cre recombinase to the early mouse embryo. Cre expression is thought to occur prior to implantation in the uterine wall. A mosaic pattern of expression is commonly observed. Cre-mediated recombination occurs in a wide range of tissues, including the germ cells that transmit the genetic alteration to progeny. These mice may be useful for breeding to other mice carrying loxP-flanked DNA sequences of interest. This would readily generate progeny in which Cre-mediated excision of the targeted sequences has occurred.

| Mice homozygous for this dopamine transporter IRES-cre (DATIREScre) mutant allele are viable and fertile. Cre recombinase activity is observed as early as embryonic day 15, and co-localizes with endogenous gene expression in adult dopaminergic cell groups (substantia nigra (SN) and ventral tegmental area (VTA), as well as in the retrorubral field). Lesser Cre recombinase activity occurs in adult olfactory bulb glomeruli, mimicking the known lower Slc6a3 (or DAT) expression in this tissue. Although the pattern and intensity of DAT immunostaining in the SN, VTA and striatum do not differ between wild-type and mutant mice, striatum DAT protein levels are moderately reduced (17%) in heterozygotes and significantly reduced (47%) in homozygotes. This diminution in homozygous striatum is associated with significantly increased neuropeptide PDyn (but not D1, D2, or PPE) mRNA levels compared to wild-type, while such an increase is not observed in heterozygotes.

| Mice hemizygous for this transgene express Cre recombinase under the direction of the mouse villin 1 promoter. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination results in tissue-specific deletion of the target. Recombination occurs in villi and crypt cells of the small and large intestines, closely patterning the endogenous gene expression. The Donating Investigator indicates that expression is generally continuous, but that a small amount of mosaicism is noted in the colon. Onset of transgene expression is at 12.5 dpc, which is delayed from the endogenous mouse Vil1 gene expression onset of 9.0 dpc. Hemizygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.

| The Flnc Δ41-48 mutant allele has the last eight exons (exons 41-48) of the filamin C (FLNc) locus deleted. The deleted region encodes the last five filamin-like repeats (including the dimerization domain) and the Hinge 2 domain of FLNc. As such, the Flnc Δ41-48 allele expresses a truncated mRNA at reduced levels compared to the wildtype allele in limb muscle and heart tissues. Western blot analysis on limb muscle protein lysates shows that the Flnc Δ41-48 allele expresses a truncated protein at very low levels. Heterozygous mice are viable and fertile with no reported abnormalities. Mice homozygous for the Flnc Δ41-48 allele die at birth. At embryonic day (E)18.5, homozygous mice born via Cesarean section are able to take several short breaths but exhibit respiratory distress (failure to inflate lungs) and die shortly thereafter.

| The FOXO1/GFP allele contains a loxP-flanked transcriptional STOP cassette (PGK-Neo-polyA) upstream of a forkhead box O1 (Foxo1)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein. Homozygotes are viable and fertile. In the absence of Cre, reporter gene expression is prevented by the STOP sequence. When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the floxed-STOP cassette deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s), resulting in FOXO1/GFP expression in Cre-recombinase-expressing cells. FOXO1 is a component of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K)-AKT pathway, and shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm upon activation/inhibition by AKT. The PI3K-AKT signaling pathway is activated after administration of insulin and leptin. Exclusion of FoxO1 from the nucleus upon AKT phosphorylation allows visualization of activated/inactivated AKT by monitoring sub-cellular localization of the FOXO1-GFP fusion protein.

The mutant allele consists of a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and an altered version of the mouse estrogen receptor ligand binding domain. The mutant ligand binding domain does not bind natural ligand at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic ligand, 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Restricted to the cytoplasm, the CRE/ESR1 protein can only gain access to the nuclear compartment to mediate recombination after exposure to tamoxifen. Tamoxifen administration will also induce Cre recombination in the developing embryos of treated mothers. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site-flanked sequence of interest, this mutant is useful for generating tamoxifen-induced, Cre-mediated targeted deletions.

| Mice heterozygous for both targeted mutations (R26-rtTA and Cola1a::tetO-Oct4) are viable and fertile. These "Oct-4/rtTA" mice express rtTA-M2, an optimized form of reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator (rtTA) protein, in multiple tissues. In the absence of the tetracycline analog doxycycline (dox), Oct4 (Pou5f1) expression from the Col1a1 locus is not detected. Following dox administration, high Oct4 expression is induced in liver, bone marrow, stomach, intestine, and skin, with lower levels in the heart, lungs, kidney, spleen, and thymus; no expression was detected in the brain and testes. Dox-inducd activation of Oct4 results in dysplasia in epithelial tissues. These mutant mice may be useful for studies of tumorigenesis and pluripotent cells. | ||

| Homozygous ROSA26 GNZ knock-in mice are viable and fertile, with a nuclear-localized green fluorescent protein/beta-galactosidase fusion protein (GFP-NLS-lacZ or GNZ) inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor (ROSA26) locus. Widespread expression of GNZ is blocked by an upstream loxP-flanked STOP sequence (in the absence of Cre recombinase, no expressed GFP or beta-galactosidase activity is observed in GNZ embryos(E9.5-18.5)). When bred to cre expressing mice, offspring will have the STOP sequence deleted in tissues where Cre recombinase is present. The resulting GNZ fusion protein expression allows for enhanced (single cell level) visualization / resolution. The donating investigator reports that Cre recombinase activity can be visualized by direct GFP fluorescence, but the high resolution nuclear staining of GNZ may be best visualized by immunostaining for either GFP or beta-galactosidase. These ROSA26 GNZ mice are useful as a Cre reporter strain; expressing both G ..... For more information please see the full phenotype on the strain data sheet | ||

Expression of the EGFP gene is blocked by a loxP-flanked STOP fragment placed between the EGFP sequence and the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. This strain serves as a reporter strain, with successful Cre excision being indicated by EGFP expression in cre-expressing tissues. Mice that are homozygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.

Expression of the targeted gene product (mRNA and protein) mimics endogenous gene expression as detected by in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry of homozygous embryos aged E12.5. No endogenous Pax3 gene product (protein) is detected in homozygotes and approximately one half of the endogenous gene product (protein) is detected in heterozygotes by Western blot analysis. Cre recombinase expression is detected in the dorsal neural tube and somites of E9 to 11.5 embryos and in the cardiac neural crest cells and colonic epithelia of E11.5 embryos. Recombination occurs in neural crest and somite derivatives of later gestation embryos. Homozygous mice have an embryonic lethal phenotype, failing to develop past embryonic day 18.5.

When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, the resulting offspring have exon 4 (encoding an evolutionarily conserved Sir2 motif) deleted in cre-expressing tissue(s); (the donating investigator reports only one recombination event: complete removal of the neomycin cassette and exon 4, leaving a single loxp). These SirT1co/co mice may be useful in generating conditional mutants for studying transcriptional regulation and the role of estrogen, insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and transcription factors (including NF-kappaB) in mammary gland development, mammary cancer, apoptosis, and metabolic di .....

| While heterozygous mice are viable and fertile with no reported abnormalities, homozygous mice die shortly after birth. The Six2GCE "knock-in" allele both abolishes Six2 gene function and expresses an eGFPCreERT2 fusion protein (EGFP and creERT2 fusion protein) from the Six2 promoter/enhancer elements. While EGFP immunofluorescence is observed in nephron progenitor population cap mesenchyme from the onset of metanephric kidney development, Cre-ERT2 fusion gene activity is inducible; observed in the same cells only following tamoxifen administration. As such, when Six2GCE mice are bred with mice containing loxP-flanked sequence, tamoxifen-inducible, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequences in the Six2-expressing cells of the offspring.

The targeting vector contains an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal (KDEL), which is reported to sequester the potential truncated mRNA product in the ER. The vector also contains an IRES-PLAP reporter gene, allowing extracellular antibody staining/chromogenic development tracking of cells normally expressing the endogenous gene. Homozygous mice display behavioral deficits in response to mustard oil, cold, and punctate mechanical stimuli. These mice have a normal startle reflex to loud noise, a normal sense of balance, a normal auditory brainstem response, and normal transduction currents in vestibular hair cells.

| The CMV-BBS1 transgene contains a simian cytomegalovirus (sCMV) IE94 promoter driving expression of the open reading frame of the human Bardet-Biedl syndrome 1 (BBS1) gene, tagged with a 5' 3xFLAG tag and 4xMyc tag. Homozygous mice are viable and fertile. BBS is a pleiotropic disorder characterized by retinal and photoreceptor degeneration, obesity, polydactyly, renal abnormalities, hypogenitalism and cognitive impairment.

| Mice hemizygous for this Cre-ERT2 transgene are viable and fertile. Mice from this founder line have strong tamoxifen-inducible cre activity in all reported tissue types. The Cre-ERT2 fusion protein consists of Cre recombinase fused to a triple mutant form of the human estrogen receptor; which does not bind its natural ligand (17β-estradiol) at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic estrogen receptor ligands 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT) and, with lesser sensitivity, ICI 182780. Restricted to the cytoplasm, Cre-ERT2 can only gain access to the nuclear compartment after exposure to OHT. To counteract the mixed estrogen agonist effects of tamoxifen injections, which can result in late fetal abortions in pregnant mice, progesterone may be coadministered.

As such, cre expression is directed by the endogenous promoter/enhancer regions primarily to developing palate mesenchyme and metanephric mesenchyme-derived glomeruli tissues (but not other epithelial and mesenchymal tissues in the developing metanephric kidney). Some ectopic cre activity is reported (particularly in the central nervous system). When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequence in these tissues in the offspring.

| Mice homozygous for the Col1a1-tetO-OKSM targeted mutation are viable and fertile, although the donating investigator reports that homozygous mice do not breed as well as expected. Expression of the OKSM cassette (four mouse reprogramming genes Oct4 [Pou5f1], Klf4, Sox2, and c-Myc [Myc]) is controlled by the tet-responsive element (tetO; also called tetracycline operator, tet-operator, or tetracycline-responsive element [TRE]) with CMV minimal enhancer-less promoter. When bred with another mouse expressing reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA), expression of the OKSM cassette can be regulated with the tetracycline analog doxycycline (dox) in the resulting double mutant offspring. Somatic expression of the OKSM reprogramming factors allows multiple somatic cell types to be directly reprogrammed to generate induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). Because the reprogram .....

When treated with specific transcription factors (Oct4, Sox2, c-Myc and Klf4), some Oct4-EGFP murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) have the properties of induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Such iPS cells have the DNA methylation, gene expression and chromatin state of embryonic stem cells and can form viable chimeras, contribute to the germ line, and generate live late-term embryos when injected into tetraploid blastocysts. These Oct4-EGFP mutant mice may be useful for fluorescent labeling of embryonic stem cells, as well as for the selection of iPS cells (i.e. epigenetic reprogramming of somatic cells into pluripotent embryonic stem cells).

A loxP-flanked STOP cassette prevents transcription of the downstream red fluorescent protein variant (tdTomato). When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, the resulting offspring will have the STOP cassette deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s); resulting in expression of tdTomato. Because this CAG promoter driven reporter construct was targeted for insertion into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus, tdTomato expression is determined by which tissue(s) express Cre recombinase. Ai14 mice are not expected to express tdTomato prior to introduction of Cre recombinase and tdTomato expression following exposure to cre is expected to be detectable by fluorescence and mRNA (in situ hybridization).

| Mice hemizygous for the S4F:cre transgene are viable and fertile, containing the SRY-box containing gene 10 (Sox10) promoter and a c-Fos minimal promoter sequence directing expression of Cre recombinase predominantly to neural crest derived cells. Specifically, Cre recombinase expression is observed in craniofacial skeletal components, sympathetic and parasympathetic neuronal/glial populations as well as epidermal melanocyte precursors. Expression is also evident in non-neural crest derived tissues including oligodendrocytes and the ventral neural tube. When these transgenic mice are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, Cre-mediated recombination is expected to result in deletion of the floxed sequences in the Cre recombinase-expressing tissues of the offspring. These mice may be important for lineage tracing, gene function characterization, and genome manipulations. | ||

| Mice hemizygous for the Thy1-VChR1-YFP transgene are viable and fertile with expression of the VChR1::YFP fusion protein directed to neural cells by the modified murine Thy1 promoter region. The VChR1::YFP fusion protein is composed of a synthetic, mammalian codon-optimized, red-shifted channelrhodopsin-1 derived from Volvox carteri (VChR1) fused in-frame with an enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (EYFP). Compared with ChR2, VChR1 has a markedly (~70 nm) red-shifted action spectrum with a maximum at ~535 nm (green light). The bacterial opsins are retinal-binding proteins that provide light-dependent ion transport and sensory functions to a family of halophilic bacteria; and this VChR1 functions as a green light-driven cation channel that depolarizes the cell and causes action potentials. As such, illumination of VChR1-expressing neurons leads to rapid and reversible photostimulation of action potential firing/neural activity in these cells. The donating investigator spec .....

| These transgenic mice ("SLICK" for single-neuron labeling with inducible Cre-mediated knock-out) have a tamoxifen inducible Cre-mediated recombination system and Enhanced Yellow Fluorescent Protein driven by 2 bidirectional copies of the mouse thymus cell antigen 1 promoter. Hemizygotes are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The Donating Investigator has not attempted to make the strain homozygous. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site flanked sequence of interest, the offspring are useful for generating tamoxifen-induced, Cre-mediated targeted neuron-specific deletions only in neurons where the Thy1 is active. These cells will be evident by the expression of Yellow Fluorescent Protein. Transgenic mice express YFP constitutively in neurons.

| The donating investigator reports that homozygous mice are viable and fertile. These TetRE-ErbB2 (TRE-ErbB2 or TRE-Neu) transgenic mice have expression of an activated form of the rat ErbB2 regulated by the tetracycline operator (tetO; also called tetracycline-responsive element (TRE, TetRE) or tet-operator) and cytomegalovirus minimal promoter. When mated to a mutant strain expressing reverse tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (rtTA) or tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein (tTA), expression of the constitutively active ErbB2 protein may be regulated with the tetracycline analog doxycycline (dox) in the double mutant offspring.
The amino acid mutation within the transmembrane domain of the ErbB2 receptor protein kinase facilitates its oligomerization and activation independent of a ligand; resulting in hyperplasia in tissues where it is expressed.

| In this transgenic strain, deletion of loxP-flanked genes occurs in all tissues, including germ cells. The cre gene in this strain is under the transcriptional control of a human cytomegalovirus minimal promoter and is likely to be expressed before implantation during early embryogenesis. It also appears that the cre gene is X-linked since transgene transmission through males is restricted to female offspring. As these cre-transgenic mice are on a BALB/c background, they are ideally suited for breeding with gene-targeted mutant mice that have been created using the BALB/c-derived ES cell line BALB/c-I.

| Mice heterozygous for the ROSA:LNL:tTA conditional mutation of the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked STOP cassette preventing transcription of a downstream optimized/modified tetracycline-controlled transactivator protein ("mtTA"). Applying both Cre-lox and Tet-Off technologies, these ROSA:LNL:tTA mutant mice may be useful to generate compound mutant mice in which expression of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; also called tet-operator or tetO)-driven gene of interest can be both directed to the cell types defined by the chosen Cre recombinase expression, as well as turned off by the addition of tetracycline (or its analog doxycycline (dox)).
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 phenotype could vary from that originally describe ..... | ||

| A targeting vector was designed to insert an internal ribosome entry site (IRES)-enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (eYFP) fusion protein, followed by a floxed neomycin (neo) resistance cassette, downstream of the endogenous translational stop codon of the interleukin 12b (Il12b) gene. These homozygous YET40 mice are viable, fertile, and normal in size. IL-12b, or p40, binds with p35 to form the heterodimeric cytokine IL-12, after induction by toll like receptors (TLRs), in macrophages and dendritic cells (DC). YET40 mice show p40 and YFP expression in DC in draining lymph nodes, after inoculation with Listeria monocytogenes or lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and promote Th1 differentiation. These mice may be useful for visualizing active IL-12 in DCs and macrophages during immune response. | ||

| 001107 | C.BKa-Ighb/IcrSmnJ | Repository- Live |
| C.BKa-Igh b/IcrSmn mice express the immunoglobulin heavy-chain repertoire (Ighb) of C57BL/Ka. This is a congenic strain arising from a backcross of BALB/cxC57BL/Ka-Igh a/Igh b to BALB/c from which progeny were intercrossed to obtain mice homozygous for Igh b. Initial reports indicated that these mice occasionally expressed IgG2a, but this phenomenon was transient and unpredictable. The C.BKa-Igh b/IcrSmn (commonly referred to as C.B-17) is the background strain in which the Prkdc scid mutation arose. It is primarily used as a coisogenic control strain for C.B17/Icr-scid. Characteristics of C.BKa-Igh b/IcrSmn are essentially those of BALB/c. | ||

| The Cd19 promoter specifically directs expression at the earliest stages and throughout B-lymphocyte development and differentiation. A Cre cassette is inserted into the Cd19 exon 2, functionally disrupting the gene. Homozygous mice are Cd19-deficient, whereas heterozygous mice are phenotypically normal and can be used for specific deletion of floxed targets in B-lymphocytes. Mice that are homozygous deficient for Cd19 are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. A deficiency in the B-1 subset of B-lymphocytes is observed along with a concomitant reduction in serum IgM. Homozygous mice are severely impaired in their ability to respond to T-cell-dependent antigens and fail to form splenic germinal centers. | ||
| 006769 | C.Cg-Foxp3tm2Tch/J | Repository- Live |
| Homozygous mice are viable and fertile with normal T and B cell development. These "Foxp3EGFP" mice co-express EGFP and the regulatory T cell-specific transcription factor Foxp3 under the control of the endogenous promoter. EGFP expression accurately identifies the Foxp3+ T cell population (more than 97% of Foxp3+ T cells were EGFP+), and Foxp3 mRNA expression strictly segregates with EGFP+ T cells. Due to X-inactivation in females, the number of EGFP+ CD4+ T cells found in the peripheral blood of heterozygous females was approximately half that of hemizygote males. CD4+ EGFP+ cells also exhibit normal regulatory T cell suppression of effector cell proliferation (following stimulation with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 monoclonal antibodies). Some EGFP expression is noted in a small population of CD8+ thymocytes. These mutant mice may be useful in immunological studies, including studies of regu .....

| These L2G85.BALB/c mice harbor the CAG-luc-eGFP L2G85 transgene. Homozygous mice are viable and fertile, with widespread expression of firefly luciferase and enhanced green fluorescent protein directed by the CAG promoter (human cytomegalovirus immediate early promoter enhancer with chicken beta-actin/rabbit beta-globin hybrid promoter). Bioluminesence is detected in heart, spleen, muscle, pancreas, skin, thymus and bone marrow. Luciferase activity is not detected in mature erythrocytes, although low levels are detected in erythrocyte precursors and varying levels of activity in all leukocyte subsets tested. Homozygotes have no reported gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Following luciferin injection, luciferase expression is generally greater in males than females. GFP fluorescence is detected in skin (upper epidermal layers) by fluorescence microscopy. The Donating Investigator reports that for the FVB-Tg(CAG-luc,-GFP)L2G85Chco/J (STOCK#8450) strain, no GFP fluorescence .....

| Mice homozygous for this iDTR mutation are viable and fertile. These mice have the simian Diphtheria Toxin Receptor (DTR; from simian Hbegf) inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor (ROSA26) locus. Widespread expression of DTR is blocked by an upstream loxP-flanked STOP sequence. When bred to Cre recombinase-expressing mice, the STOP sequence is deleted in tissues where Cre is present, permitting DTR expression. Cells expressing DTR are rendered susceptible to ablation following Diphtheria toxin administration.
For example, when bred to a strain with a Cd19 null allele and expressing Cre recombinase during the B lymphocyte development (Stock No. 006785), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of lymphocyte cell ablation. When crossed to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in oocytes (see Stock No. 011062), this mutant mouse strain ma ..... | ||

| Mice homozygous for the "miR-17-92 transgene" conditional allele are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked Neo-STOP cassette preventing transcription of the downstream bicistronic sequences (human miR-17-92 cluster (encoding the precursor of seven miRNA molecules; miR-17-5p, miR-17-3p, miR-18a, miR-19a, miR-20a, miR-19b and miR-92) and EGFP). When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, the resulting offspring will have the STOP cassette deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s); resulting in expression of the human miR-17-92 cluster. Because the synthetic CAG promoter driven miR-17-92 transgene was targeted for insertion into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus, expression of the transgene is determined by which tissue(s) express Cre recombinase. EGFP fluorescence, however, is not reported following exposure to Cre recombinase (presumably due to RNaseIII excision of the stem-loop structures encoding individual miRNA destabilizing the EGFP portion of the primary transcript .....

| Mice homozygous for the R26StopFLP110* conditional allele (also called P110*-transgene) are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked Neo-STOP cassette preventing transcription of the downstream bicistronic sequences (P110* [a constitutively active form of the mouse catalytic P110α subunit of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase] and EGFP). When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the STOP cassette deleted and subsequent expression of the P110* signal molecule and EGFP fluorescence in the cre-expressing cells. Expression of P110* leads to constitutively active PIK3 heterodimer activity; resulting in the generation of downstream effectors that mediate signal transduction cascades that control cell survival and cell cycle progression (growth, and proliferation). Of note, breeding these mice to an FLP-expressing strain will result in removal of the frt-flanked IRES-EGFP cassette. | ||

| Mice homozygous for the R26StopFLMEK1DD conditional allele are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked Neo-STOP cassette preventing transcription of the downstream bicistronic sequences (MEK1DD [a mutant form of rat MAPKK1 rendered constitutively active by two serine->aspartic acid substitutions (S218D/S222D) within the catalytic domain] and EGFP). When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the STOP cassette deleted and subsequent expression of the MEK1DD signal molecule and EGFP fluorescence in the cre-expressing cells. Expression of MEK1DD leads to constitutive activity of MAP Kinase signal transduction pathways that mediate various cellular activities, including gene expression, mitosis, differentiation, proliferation, cell survival, and cell cycle progression. Of note, breeding these mice to an FLP-expressing strain will result in removal of the frt-flanked IRES-EGFP cassette. | ||

| Mice homozygous for the R26StopFLRACDA conditional allele are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked Neo-STOP cassette preventing transcription of the downstream bicistronic sequences (RACDA [RacG12V; a mutant form of Rac1 rendered constitutively active by a glycine->valine substitution at amino acid 12] and EGFP). When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the STOP cassette deleted and subsequent expression of the RACDA signal molecule and EGFP fluorescence in the cre-expressing cells. Expression of RACDA leads to constitutive activity of Rac1-dependent signal transduction; which is associated with gene expression, proliferation, cell survival, cell cycle progression, cytoskeletal reorganization, and Rho- and CDC42-pathways. Of note, breeding these mice to an FLP-expressing strain will result in removal of the frt-flanked IRES-EGFP cassette. | ||
| 009062 | C57BL/6-Magel2tm1Stw/J | Repository- Live |
| The mouse locus 7qB4/B5 (syntenic with the Prader-Willi region at chromosome position 15q11-q13 in humans) encompasses the cluster of paternally-expressed imprinted genes Magel2, Ndn, Mkrn3, and Peg12. As maternal imprinting silences the Magel2 allele, only the paternally inherited Magel2 allele is expressed. The Magel2-lacZ knock-in allele abolishes endogenous gene function and expresses a β-galactosidase fusion protein. Under control of the upstream promoter/enhancer elements, lacZ expression is directed to the same tissues as the wildtype gene. For example, β-galactosidase expression during embryogenesis is detected in central nervous system (neural tube, forebrain, midbrain and embryonic hypothalamus), peripheral nervous system (dorsal root ganglia and peripheral neurons innervating limb and trunk muscles), and some non-neuronal tissues (genital tubercle, midgut region and placenta).

| Mice that are hemizygous for the transgene are viable, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express the membrane bound chicken ovalbumin OVA gene under the direction of the chicken beta actin promoter coupled with the cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate-early enhancer. Chicken ovalbumin expression is detected by immunohistochemical analysis of all tissues. Splenocytes from transgenic mice display the 254-267-Kb complex, which is recognized by T-cells from the transgenic strain C57BL/6-Tg(TcraTcrb)1100Mjb/J (Stock No. 3831) and the 323-339-I-Ab complex, which is recognized by T-cells from the transgenic C57BL/6-Tg(TcraTcrb)425Cbn/J (Stock No. 4194). Skin grafts from transgenic mice are rejected by C57BL/6 recipients. Ovalbumin antigen specific T cells can be tracked in vivo.

| 016097 | C57BL/6-Tg(Car1-cre)5Flt/J | Repository- Live |
| These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse Car1, carbonic anhydrase 1, promoter. Transgenic transcript is detected in the tissues of the large intestine (cecum, proxmial and distal colon) by RT-PCR. Low levels of transcript are detected in the liver, and no transgene transcript is detected in kidney, stomach, bone marrow, prostate, lung, thymus, liver hear, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, pancreas, spleen. Mosaic recombinase activity is detected as early as 14.5 dpc in approximately 15% of the epithelial cells of the large intestine and is observed in individual crypts from the base to lumen. When crossed with a strain containing loxP site-flanked sequences, cre-mediated recombination results in large intestine epithelial-specific deletion of the flanked sequences in the offspring. Mice that are homozygous for the transgene are viable, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. | ||

These mice express Cre at high levels in the brain cortex in a pattern that is qualitatively similar to that of the wildtype Cck gene. There is virtually no expression in subcortical regions. Although a component of the transgene, DsRed2 is not expressed. This strain may be useful for various psychiatric and neuroscience studies of this neuropeptide promoter. | ||

| These Macrophage Fas-Induced Apoptosis (MAFIA) transgenic mice have an inducible Fas suicide/ apoptotic system driven by the mouse Csf1r, colony stimulating factor 1 receptor promoter. The transgene insert contains a mutant human FK506 binding protein 1A, 12kDa (FKBP12) which preferentially binds the dimerization drug AP20187. Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP) fluorescence and transgene expression is detected in 78% of isolated peritoneal cells. EGFP fluorescence is variable among tissues (B- and T-cells do not express EGFP). Administration of the dimerizing reagent, AP20187, induces apoptosis in macrophages and dendritic cells (intravenous injection of dimerizer is recommended, since the intraperitoneal route can elicit peritoneal adhesions). In treated mice, EGFP fluorescing peritoneal and bone marrow macrophage numbers are depleted by more than 90%, and macrophage numbers in blood, spleen, lung and thymus by more than 70%. 7 days after cessation of treatment, the EGFP .....

| Mice hemizygous for this "G32-4" transgene are viable, fertile, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Transgene expression (cre activity) is detectable at 14 days old in area CA3 of the hippocampus, and at 8 weeks of age, recombination is observed in nearly 100% of pyramidal cells in area CA3. Recombination is also observed in other brain areas, but at distinctly lower frequencies. If bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, tissue-specific deletion of that sequence results in the offspring. Specifically, when these mice were bred with a conditional CaMKII allele (see Stock No. 006575), the resulting offspring exhibited altered neurotransmitter release. The donating investigator reports that G32-4 females may confer global Cre-mediated deletion of loxP-flanked sequences in some offspring, and recommend using male G32-4 mice exclusively for such trials.

| 012906 | C57BL/6-Tg(Nes-cre/Esr1*)1Kuan/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice homozygous for the nestin-CreER transgene are viable and fertile, with the rat nestin enhancer/hsp68 minimal promoter directing expression of a tamoxifen-inducible Cre recombinase (Cre-ERT1). This Cre-ERT1 fusion protein is estrogen insensitive, and is only active when it binds the estrogen analog 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT or tamoxifen). Following tamoxifen administration, Cre recombinase activity is reported in adult neural progenitors in the subventricular zone (SVZ), perinatal SVZ glioblasts, embryonic neural progenitors, and postnatally transformed radial glial cells. When these nestin-CreER transgenic mice are bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence, tamoxifen-inducible Cre-mediated recombination is expected to result in deletion of the floxed sequences in the Cre recombinase-expressing tissues of the offspring. These mice may be useful for studying embryonic and adult neurogenesis.

| 013148 | C57BL/6-Tg(Pdgfra-cre)1Clc/J | Repository- Live |
| Hemizygous Pdgfra-cre mice are viable and fertile, with cre expression directed to retinal Muller glial cells by the mouse Pdgfra (platelet derived growth factor receptor, alpha polypeptide) promoter. Expression is predominantly in the cell bodies of the inner nuclear layer (INL) of the retina, but some expression may be observed in the outer nuclear layer (ONL) and in the ganglion cell layer (GCL). The donating investigator indicates that although not examined, cre may also be active in many types of central nervous system glial cells. When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequence(s) in the offspring. | ||

| These transgenic mice express a codon-improved Cre recombinase (iCre) under the control of the mouse Pf4 (platelet factor 4), or Cxcl4, promoter. Cre recombinase expression is detected in the majority of megakaryocytes. Mice homozygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The BAC clone used to generate this strain also contains 4 other genes: Cxcl5, Cxcl7, Cxcl15 and Cxcl3. The additional copy of these chemokine genes in the BAC has no effect on blood count of the mutant mice. This strain represents an effective tool for generating megakaryocyte lineage-restricted specific-targeted mutants. | ||

This promoter normally directs expression exclusively in the growing oocyte prior to the completion of the first meiotic division. This strain would be useful for deleting a floxed sequence specifically in the female germ line. The Donating Investigator suggests to accomplish this, females homozygous or heterozygous for the floxed allele, as well as hemizygous for the Zp3cre allele are crossed with wild type males. Progeny will carry the deleted-floxed allele. | ||

| 007567 | C57BL/6J-Tg(Itgax-cre,-EGFP)4097Ach/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice hemizygous for this CD11c-Cre-GFP transgene are viable and fertile. The CD11c (Itgax) promoter directs bicistronic Cre and EGFP protein expression to dendritic cells (DCs). Expression of EGFP is expected to have equimolar expression with Cre recombinase. When bred with any mouse containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, the resulting offspring can have Cre-mediated recombination of the flanked sequence. These CD11c-Cre-GFP transgenic mice (as well as CD11c-Cre transgenic mice (see Stock No. 008068)) may be useful for immunological studies utilizing Cre-lox technology or fluorescent protein expression in dendritic cells. | ||
| 008661 | C57BL/6J-Tg(Nkx2-1-cre)2Sand/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice homozygous for the Nkx2.1Cre (or BAC-Nkx2.1-Cre) transgene are viable and fertile, with cre expression directed to major subgroups of brain interneuron progenitors, developing lung, thyroid, and pituitary by the Nkx2.1 promoter/enhancer regions within the BAC transgene. When bred with mice containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the floxed sequence(s) in the offspring. For example, when bred with beta-galactosidase reporter mice, the first detectable Cre recombinase expression in double mutant offspring is observed on embryonic day (E)10.5 in the basal telencephalon. These Nkx2.1Cre (or BAC-Nkx2.1-Cre) transgenic mice may be useful for generating conditional mutations for studying gain or loss of function and/or fate mapping in subgroups of brain progenitors (including future major interneurons in telencephalon and hypothalamus cells), as well as developing lung, thyroid, and pituitary. | ||
| 009593 | C57BL/6J-Tg(Pomc-EGFP)1Low/J | Repository- Live |
| Mice hemizygous for this POMC-EGFP transgene are viable and fertile, with EGFP expression directed to POMC-expressing neurons by the mouse Pomc (pro-opiomelanocortin-alpha) promoter/enhancer regions. The donating investigator reports that transcripts from the transgene encode EGFP but do not express any POMC prohormone or peptides. Direct EGFP fluorescence is observed in the arcuate nucleus of the hypothalamus (ARC), in melanotrophs/corticotrophs of the pituitary gland, and (unlike other POMC promoter-driven fluorescent mice) in a subpopulation of newly born granule neurons of the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus. EGFP expression is also observed in the nucleus of the solitary tract of the medulla. EGFP expression is downregulated as neurons mature and migrate deeper into the granule cell layer. These POMC-EGFP mice may be useful in studying neuronal signaling pathways, energy metabolism, leptin activity, obesity, seizures, depression, and epilepsy. | ||
| 002356 | C57BL/6J-Tg(pPGKneobpA)3Ems/J | Repository- Live |
| Homozygous neoR transgenic mice (TgN3Ems) are viable and fertile with no apparent gross phenotype. The pPGKneobpA transgene has the mouse Pgk1 promoter directing widespread (but not necessarily uniform) expression of neoR: this renders TgN3Ems mice highly G418-resistant and results in a 5-fold increase in the approximate lethal dose of G418 (~480 mg/kg) compared to wildtype mice (~103 mg/kg). Treatment with G418 lethal dose (or higher) in transgenic mice leads to rapid onset of decreased movement, respiratory arrest, and death within minutes. Compared to wildtype mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), TgN3Ems MEFs exhibit greatly diminished G418 sensitivity: wildtype MEFs show essentially no resistance to G418 while TgN3Ems MEFs survive approximately 20-fold higher G418 levels. Importantly, TgN3Ems heterozygotes and TgN3Ems homozygotes are equally resistant to G418. These TgN3Ems transgenic mice may be useful as source of G418-resistant feeder cells for ge .....

| 014590 | C57BL/6J-mt129S1/SvImJ/NaJ | Repository- Live |
| This strain represents one of a panel of chromosome substitution (or consomic) strains. Each strain carries a chromosome from the 129S1/SvImJ strain introgressed into a C57BL/6J background. The strain set also includes a conplastic strain (mt129S1/SvImJ) created by sequential backcrossing of the donor female to the host male. A conplastic strain carries the mitochondrial genome of the donor strain. These strains represent a tool for dissection of quantitative trait loci.
The set is currently incomplete; new strains will be added as they become available. | ||

| 010810 | C57BL/6J-mtFVB/NJ/IbraJ | Repository- Live |
| This strain is one of several conplastic strains created to investigate mitochondrial DNA variations on complex traits. The FVB/NJ strain carries an aspartic acid to tyrosine substitution in the mitochondrial mt-Atp8 gene. In behavioral testing, this conplastic strain exhibits increased anxiety as compared to controls. Mice tested in the elevated plus maze spend less time and walk shorter distances in the open arms section of the maze. | ||
| 005761 | C57BL/6J-mtPWD/Ph/ForeJ | Repository- Live |
| This strain represents one of a panel of inter-species chromosome substitution (or consomic) strains (IC-ISS). Each strain carries a chromosome from the Mus musculus musculus wild-derived strain PWD/Ph introgressed into a Mus musculus domesticus C57BL/6J background. The two species are believed to have diverged 350,000 to one million years ago and exhibit multiple genetic and phenotypic differences. The strain set also includes a conplastic strain (mtPWD/Ph) created by sequential backcrossing of the donor female to the host male. A conplastic strain carries the mitochondrial genome of the donor strain. The IC-ISS strains represent a tool for dissection of quantitative trait loci. | ||

| These transgenic mice have a tamoxifen inducible Cre-mediated recombination system driven by the mouse Slc32a1, solute carrier family 32 (GABA vesicular transporter), member 1, promoter. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site flanked sequence, the offspring are useful for generating tamoxifen-induced, Cre-mediated targeting events. Tamoxifen administration induces Cre recombination throughout the brain in neurons that structurally resemble interneurons. Homozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.
This Cre-ERT2 fusion protein consists of iCre recombinase (Codon-improved Cre recombinase) fused to a triple mutant form of the human estrogen receptor which does not bind its natural ligand (17β-estradiol) at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic estrogen receptor ligands 4-hydroxytamoxifen (OHT or tamoxifen) and, with lesser sensitivity, ICI 18278 ..... | ||

| 008234 | CB6-Tg(CAG-EGFP/CETN2)3-4Jgg/J | Repository- Live |
| Transgenic GFP-CETN2 mice are viable and fertile, expressing an enhanced green fluorescent protein-labeled human Centrin-2 (EGFP-CETN2) under the control of the chicken beta-actin promoter (with cytomegalovirus immediate early enhancer). Distinct and uniform GFP fluorescence corresponding to the two centrioles of the centrosome are observed in every tissue examined from embryonic day 14.5 through adult, independent of cell-cycle stage. Overexpression of CETN2 from the transgene is not reported to lead to any aberrant phenotype or alter the average number of centrosomes per cell. As intracellular GFP-aggregates are observed in specific regions exclusively in the adult brain, the donating investigator cautions against the use of this model in studying the centrosome in adult brain. These GFP-CETN2 mice allow fluorescent staining of the centrioles of the centrosome, and may be useful for studying mitosis, microtubule organization, cell-cycle regulation, signal transduction, transcription .....

| Mice hemizygous for this GAD67-GFP transgene are viable and fertile. GAD67-GFP (line G42) mice selectively express enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) in the calcium-binding protein parvalbumin (Pv)-expressing subclass of basket interneurons (soma, dendrites, and axons) and also in putative presynaptic boutons. Transgene expression (EGFP expression) is published as early as postnatal day 0 (P0) with high expression levels throughout postnatal development. EGFP expression remains restricted to ~50% of Pv-expressing interneurons in adulthood. The donating investigator additionally reports transgene expression as early as embryonic day 14 (E14). EGFP expression is not reported in other interneuron classes positive for somatostatin (SOM), cholecystokinin (CCK), calretinin (CR), and VIP. These GAD67-GFP (line G42) mice may be useful for fluorescent labeling of the Pv-expressing subset of GABAergic neurons, allowing reliable and efficient characterization of perisomatic innervation .....

| These mice possess loxP sites on either side of exon 3 of the targeted gene. Mice that are homozygous for this allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. When these mutant mice are bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, resulting offspring will have exon 3 deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s).
When bred to a strain with inducible Cre recombinase expression in dendritic cells (see Stock No. 008068 for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of Toll-like receptor signaling during immune responses. When bred to a strain with Cre recombinase expression in hematopoietic cells (see Stock No. 008610 for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of Toll-like receptor signaling and natural killer cells. When bred to a strain with Cre reco ..... | ||

| Mice homozygous for this iDTR mutation are viable and fertile. These mice have the simian Diphtheria Toxin Receptor (DTR; from simian Hbegf) inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor (ROSA26) locus. Widespread expression of DTR is blocked by an upstream loxP-flanked STOP sequence. When bred to Cre recombinase-expressing mice, the STOP sequence is deleted in tissues where Cre is present, permitting DTR expression. Cells expressing DTR are rendered susceptible to ablation following Diphtheria toxin administration.
For example, when bred to a strain with a Cd19 null allele and expressing Cre recombinase during the B lymphocyte development (Stock No. 006785), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of lymphocyte cell ablation. When crossed to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in the pituitary and, at lower levels, in the testes (see Stock No. > ..... | ||
