Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Strain Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Spontaneous Mutation Species laboratory mouse Generation N15 F1 Strain Description
Most mice homozygous for the shaker-with-syndactylism mutation (sy) die within the first month, and none have lived to breed. Homozygous mutant mice may be syndactylous on all four feet; the forefeet may often be normal and possibly one or both hindfeet very occasionally so. The remainder of the skeleton shows many slight anomalies in addition to small size. The shafts of the long bones are considerably thinner than normal, and there are differences in shape of the sacral vertebrae and the scapula. Abnormal behavior appears during the first week. It consists of head-tossing and some circling, and the affected mice are always deaf. Abnormalities of the labyrinth can be seen at E13.Strain Development
This shaker-with-syndactylism mutation (sy) was found by Dr. P. Hertwig among descendants of an irradiated male.

| Molecular Note | This deletion has been approximated to 1 cM region and consists of at least two genes. The gene responsible for deafness in the original sy mutant mouse and the ns allele has been identifed as Slc12a2. The gene responsible for the abnormal foot morphology seen in the fused phalanges alleles and the original sy mutant has been identified as Fbn2. [MGI Ref ID J:50578] | ||

Cryorecovery of Strains Needing Progeny Testing. The recovery process begins when a signed agreement form is returned to the Customer Service Department after order placement. Although results vary by strain, at least two untested males and two untested females (two pairs) will be recovered, typically within 15 weeks of our receipt of the signed agreement form. If the first recovery attempt is unsuccessful or only one pair is recovered, a second recovery will be done, extending the overall recovery time to approximately 25 weeks. However, all pups recovered will be sent. Progeny testing is required to identify the genotype of mice of this strain, as a genotyping assay is not available. This type of testing involves breeding the recovered animals and assessing the phenotype of the offspring in order to identify animals carrying the mutation of interest. We can perform the progeny testing for you as a service or we can ship all recovered animals (at least two untested pairs) to you for progeny testing at your facility. If you perform the progeny testing, there is NO guarantee that a carrier will be identified. If we perform progeny testing as a service, additional breeding time will be required. In this case, when a male and female (one pair) are identified that carry the mutation, they and their offspring will be shipped. Delivery time for strains requiring progeny testing often exceeds 25 weeks and may take 12 months or more due to the difficulties in breeding some strains. The progeny testing cost is in addition to the recovery cost and is based on the number of boxes used and the time taken to produce the mice identified as carrying the mutation. Please note that identified pairs may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation of the strain. Mating schemes are sometimes modified for successful cryopreservation.
