Stock Number	Strain Name Strain Description	Standard Supply
100410	WBB6F1/J-Kit^W/Kit^W-v/J	Level 2
	Kit mutant mice possess pleiotropic defects in pigment-forming cells, germ cells, RBC's and mast cells. In addition, they exhibit impaired resistance to parasitic infection and an intrinsic progenitor cell defect. Kit^W-v homozygotes resemble Kit^W homozygotes in color, anemia, and germ cells, but many of them survive to maturity. The lack of germ cells in mutant mice leads to the development of some ovarian tumors (mesotheliomas and granulosa cell), associated with an overproduction of pituitary gonadotropic hormone. Kit^W/Kit^W-v double heterozygotes are viable but sterile because of germ cell deficiency. They are also mast cell deficient. Kit^W/Kit^W-v double heterozygotes lack intermediate cells, derived from melanoblasts, in the stria vascularis resulting in endocochlear degeneration, loss of endocochlear potential, and hearing impairment.
000049	C57BL/6J-Kit^W-v/J	Level 4
	Kit mice possess pleiotropic defects in pigment-forming cells, germ cells, RBC's and mast cells. In addition, they exhibit impaired resistance to parasitic infection and an intrinsic progenitor cell defect. Kit^W-v homozygotes resemble Kit^W homozygotes in color, anemia, and germ cells, but many of them survive to maturity.

000692	WB/ReJ Kit^W/J	Level 4
	Kit mice possess pleiotropic defects in pigment-forming cells, germ cells, RBC's and mast cells. In addition, they exhibit impaired resistance to parasitic infection and an intrinsic progenitor cell defect. The lack of germ cells in homozygous mutant mice leads to the development of some ovarian tumors (mesotheliomas and granulosa cell), associated with an overproduction of pituitary gonadotropic hormone.

006564	B6(C)-Kit^W-41J Gusb^mps/BrkJ	Repository-Cryopreserved
	Mice homozygous for the "mps" (mucopolysaccharidosis type VII or MPS VII) mutation are devoid of expression of the lysosomal enzyme beta glucuronidase. Homozygous animals are viable, but females have a deficiency in lactation. Skeletal and connective tissue anomalies in both males and females are believed to prevent successful breeding. As this mutation is recessive, heterozygous mice are phenotypically similar to wildtype. Homozygotes exhibit short and thickened long bones (smaller than heterozygous or wildtype littermates), "pug type" appearance of the nose, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, corneal clouding, and deafness. In appearance, homozygous Kit^W-41J mice are mostly white with black eyes and brown or grey spots. MPS VII mice are a model of the beta glucuronidase enzyme deficiency in humans called Sly Disease. They may be useful in developing new therapies (enzyme replacement, cell transplantation, gene therapy) broadly applicable to other lysosomal storage disease .....

000122	B6.C3-Kit^W-44J/J	Repository-Cryopreserved
	Kit^W-44J heterozygotes have white-tipped feet and a white tail tip although the belly spot standardly found in Kit^W* mutations is very small in this mutant, sometimes restricted to only a few hairs. Homozygotes have a flecked pelt that is predominantly white, especially ventrally, with pigmented patches particularly at the lateral borders. The pigmentation fades with age yielding black-eyed white mice by approximately 9 months of age. While many Kit^W-44J homozygotes are viable, fertility is diminished. Homozygous females have greatly reduced fertility and gonads that are smaller in size with reduced activity. Homozygous males are sterile although spermatogenesis occurs. The Kit^W-44J allele does not produce anemia in either its heterozygous or homozygous state. The red blood cell count, white blood cell count, hematocrit, and mean cell volume are normal. However, bone marrow transplantation experiments reveal that t ..... For more information please see the full descriiption on the strain data sheet
000164	B6.Cg-Kit^W/J	Repository-Cryopreserved

000194	B6.Cg-Lx Kit^W-v/J	Repository-Cryopreserved
	Kit mice possess pleiotropic defects in pigment-forming cells, germ cells, RBC's and mast cells. In addition, they exhibit impaired resistance to parasitic infection and an intrinsic progenitor cell defect. Kit^W-v homozygotes resemble Kit^W homozygotes in color, anemia, and germ cells, but many of them survive to maturity. The lack of germ cells in mutant mice leads to the development of some ovarian tumors (mesotheliomas and granulosa cell), associated with an overproduction of pituitary gonadotropic hormone. Heterozygous lx mice show preaxial polydactyly (including hyperphalangy of the first digit) of the hindfeet. Homozygotes show preaxial polydactyly or oligodactyly of the hindfeet, reduction of the tibia, loss of part of the femur and pubis, decrease in number of presacral vertebrae, and anomalies of the urogenital system including horseshoe kidney, hydronephrosis, and hydroureter. Although homozygous Kit^W-v/ ..... For more information please see the full descriiption on the strain data sheet
000350	B6By.Cg-Kit^W-v Mitf^Mi-wh T/J	Repository-Cryopreserved
	Kit mice possess pleiotropic defects in pigment-forming cells, germ cells, RBC's and mast cells. In addition, they exhibit impaired resistance to parasitic infection and an intrinsic progenitor cell defect. Kit^W-v homozygotes resemble Kit^W homozygotes in color, anemia, and germ cells, but many of them survive to maturity. The lack of germ cells in mutant mice leads to the development of some ovarian tumors (mesotheliomas and granulosa cell), associated with an overproduction of pituitary gonadotropic hormone. Mutations at the Mitf locus affect eye size, pigmentation, and the capacity for secondary bone resorption. Mice homozygous for the white allele (Mitf^Mi-wh) display an overall absence of pigment cells with the exception of the retina which expresses a few giving the eye a small amount of pigment. Homozygotes show slight microphthalmia but a normal skeleton. Heterozygotes (Mitf^Mi-wh/+) have a dilut ..... For more information please see the full descriiption on the strain data sheet
