007901 B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-Brainbow1.0)HLich/J
Repository- Live
These Thy1-Brainbow 1.0 (line H) transgenic mice are viable and fertile. The mice possess multiple fluorescent protein sequences uniquely flanked with pairs of incompatible Lox sites alternated to create mutually exclusive recombination events; allowing stochastic expression of multiple fluorescent proteins from a single transgene. Prior to Cre-mediated recombination, the fluorescent protein immediately adjacent to the promoter, tdimer2(12) (RFP), is expressed in peripheral and central neurons. When bred to Cre recombinase expressing mice, the resulting offspring can have one of three expression outcomes for each transgene in each cell of the cre expressing tissue(s): tdimer2(12) (RFP) (no recombination), mYFP, or mCerulean (CFP). A palmitoylation sequence tethers the mYFP and mCerulean (CFP) to the membrane, allowing clear labeling of axonal processes, while cytoplasmic tdimer2(12) (RFP) better labeled neuronal cell bodies and dendrites. Integration of tandem transgen .....

007911 B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-Brainbow1.1)MLich/J
Repository- Live
These Thy1-Brainbow 1.1 (line M) transgenic mice are viable and fertile. The mice possess multiple fluorescent protein sequences uniquely flanked with pairs of incompatible Lox sites alternated to create mutually exclusive recombination events; allowing stochastic expression of multiple fluorescent proteins from a single transgene. Although the fluorescent protein immediately adjacent to the promoter, Kusabira-Orange (kOFP), was designed to be expressed prior to Cre-mediated recombination, basal kOFP expression is not observed in mouse tissues. When bred to Cre recombinase expressing mice, however, the resulting offspring can have one of three expression outcomes for each transgene in each cell of the cre expressing tissue(s): mCerulean (CFP), mYFP, or mCherry (RFP). The resulting fluorescent protein expression is observed in astrocytes of all areas of the brain and spinal cord, as well as dentate gyrus granule cells. A palmitoylation sequence tethers the mCherry (RFP), .....

007921 B6.Cg-Tg(Thy1-Brainbow2.1)RLich/J
Repository- Live
These Thy1-Brainbow 2.1 (line R) transgenic mice are viable and fertile. The mice possess two invertible DNA segments (four fluorescent protein sequences in total) uniquely positioned in tandem and flanked with LoxP sites to generate a larger number of recombination outcomes; allowing stochastic expression of multiple fluorescent proteins from a single transgene. Although the fluorescent protein immediately adjacent to the promoter, hrGFPII (with nuclear localization signal), was designed to be expressed prior to Cre-mediated recombination, basal hrGFPII expression may not be observed in mouse tissues. When bred to Cre recombinase expressing mice, however, the resulting offspring can have one of three different inversions for each transgene in each cell of the cre expressing tissue(s). In addition, two excision events may reduce the construct to one of two single invertible DNA segments which can continue to invert as long as cre is present. These different recomb .....

007910 B6;CBA-Tg(Thy1-Brainbow1.0)LLich/J
Repository- Live
These Thy1-Brainbow 1.0 (line L) transgenic mice are viable and fertile. The mice possess multiple fluorescent protein sequences uniquely flanked with pairs of incompatible Lox sites alternated to create mutually exclusive recombination events; allowing stochastic expression of multiple fluorescent proteins from a single transgene. Prior to Cre-mediated recombination, the fluorescent protein immediately adjacent to the promoter, dTomato (RFP), is expressed in peripheral and central neurons. When bred to Cre recombinase expressing mice, the resulting offspring can have one of three expression outcomes for each transgene in each cell of the cre expressing tissue(s): dTomato (RFP) (no recombination), mCerulean (CFP), or mYFP. Integration of tandem transgene copies yields combinatorial fluorescent protein expression in each cell, and thus many possible cell colors, providing a way to distinguish adjacent neurons and visualize other cellular interactions. Of note, the singl .....

008242C57BL/6-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1(Ikbkb)Rsky/J
Under Development for Production
Mice homozygous for the R26StopFLikk2ca conditional allele are viable and fertile, with a loxP-flanked STOP cassette preventing transcription of the downstream bicistronic sequences (a FLAG-tagged, constitutively active form of IKbkb (IKK2ca) 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 IKK2ca as well as EGFP fluorescence. Expression of IKK2ca leads to constitutively active NF-kappaB transcription factor activity. These R26StopFLikk2ca mice allow inducible expression of an activated form of Ikbkb (IKK2 or IKK-beta) and subsequent activation of the NF-kappaB transcription factor pathways.

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 .....

New Strains Under Development The Jackson Laboratory serves as a worldwide distributor and national repository for common and rare strains of inbred mice and mice carrying spontaneous mutations or induced mutations (i.e., transgenic, targeted/"knockout", or chemically induced mutations). At any one time, we have over 100 strains at various stages of development and colony expansion. Strains "Under Development" fall into two categories depending on the anticipated demand from the scientific community.
  1. Strains that will be made available from a live distribution colony at The Jackson Laboratory.
    These strains are designated as: "Under Development for Distribution Colony"
  2. Strains that will be made available through the Cryopreservation Repository.
    These strains are designated as: "Under Development for Cryopreservation Repository"
It is VERY IMPORTANT that you register interest in strains Under Development. The anticipated demand for a strain enables us to determine effectively the distribution plan for each strain Under Development. Registering interest also provides benefits to you (including advance notification of pending availability). Whether a strain is made available from a live colony OR from our cryopreservation repository, you may want to consider the option of Dedicated Supply. To learn more about Dedicated Supply, go to Services.
