004624 FVB.129P2-Fmr1tm1Cgr/J
Repository- Live
Mice that are homozygous for the targeted mutation are viable and fertile. Quantitative morphological analysis of dendritic spines of visual cortex pyramidal cells reveals mutant mice have more long dendritic spines, fewer short dendritic spines and more spines with an immature morphology than wildtype littermates. These mice were backcrossed for 11 generations onto the FVB background, are homozygous for the 129P2/OlaHsd wildtype Pde6b allele and do not suffer from blindness due to retinal degeneration. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies related to Fragile X Syndrome.
003025 B6.129P2-Fmr1tm1Cgr/J
Repository-Cryopreserved
Mice homozygous for the Fmr1tm1Cg targeted mutation show macroorchidism (enlarged testes), learning deficits, and hyperactivity. Macroorchidism in caused by an increased rate of Sertoli cell proliferation during embryogenesis which may be independent of FSH signalling. Comparison of homozygotes to wildtype littermates in hidden- and visible-platform water maze learning showed deficits in spatial learning and motor performance.
