Related Genotype: a/aDescription
Mice homozygous for the motheaten spontaneous mutation (Ptpn6me) develop severe autoimmune disease. Characteristics include by granulocytic skin lesions, pneumonitis, impaired humoral and cell-mediated immune responses, decreased responses to T cell and B cell mitogens and deficient cytotoxic T cell and NK cell activity. B cells are LY-1+. Homozygous mutant mice also exhibit hyperimmunoglobulinemia, and express multiple autoantibodies. Macrophages show increased proliferative capacity. In addition to defects in the immune system, motheaten mice show classic symptoms of osteoporosis due to an increased number and activity of osteoclasts in the bone marrow. The lifespan of homozygous motheaten mice is approximately 3 weeks with death attributed to an autoimmune pneumonitis.

| General Note |
Homozygotes are characterized by early onset autoimmunity and severe immunodeficiency (J:5579). Mice develop an unusual pneumonia which progresses to accumulation of crystal-containing macrophages in the alveoli (J:5999). Spleen macrophages of homozygotes have an accelerated rate of proliferation which may contribute to the pulmonary disease (J:7274). The number of surface-Ig-bearing lymphocytes (B-cells) is greatly reduced, and the B-cells present are of immature rather than adult type (J:6065). The number of T-cells is normal, but several T-cell functions are defective. Natural killer cell activity is virtually absent (J:6485). Genbank ID for this mutation: S63764 | ||
| Molecular Note | A single nucleotide (C) deletion at position 228 creates a cryptic splice site. This results in the deletion of a 101bp segment in the encoded transcript, and a frameshift in the encoded protein. [MGI Ref ID J:11892] [MGI Ref ID J:60297] | ||

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise
The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.Ordering and Purchasing Information
