Strain Description
Gyro (Gy) is an X-linked dominant mutation that causes circling behavior and defects in phospate metabolism. It is allelic with the hypophosphatemia mutation (PhexHyp). Hemizygous males and heterozygous females are characterized by hypophosphatemia, rickets, circling behavior, and inner ear abnormalities. Affected males are also sterile.

Gene & Allele Details

Allele Symbol Gy
Allele Name gyro
Common Name(s) PhexGy;
Strain of Origin(C3H/HeH x 101/H)F1
General Note

Gyro was identified at Harwell as a dominant mutation causing circling behavior among offspring of an irradiated female (J:28887). Hemizygous males are hypophosphatemic, have rickets/osteomalacia, exhibit circling behavior and inner ear abnormalities,and are sterile; heterozygous females show milder symptoms (J:8335).

Gy and PhexHyp have very similar effects on serum phosphorus levels and on phosphate transport (J:8335). Secondary hyperparathyroidism, a feature of PhexHyp mice and of some human hypophosphatemics, is also found in Gy mice (J:26058). Defects in renal phosphate transport are found in both types of mice (J:1824) and are mediated via the sodium-phosphate transporter expression pathway in both. However, the molecular defect differs, a different step in the expression pathway being disrupted in Gy mice than in PhexHyp animals (J:33265).

Gy and PhexHyp mice of both sexes failed to absorb Ca2+ solution injected into suture-isolated duodenum (J:17152). Both mouse mutants have abnormal vitamin D metabolism (J:24017,J:1824), and both show femoral and craniofacial bone abnormalities (J:24017, J:1654).

Molecular Note The phenotype of the gyro mouse has been attributed to a deletion of ~160-190 kb, that includes the Sms gene as well as the first three exons and the promoter of the Phex gene. [MGI Ref ID J:38621] [MGI Ref ID J:46360] [MGI Ref ID J:47232]

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-Cryopreserved. Must Be Recovered. Please refer to pricing and supply notes for further information.
Supply Notes Cryorecovery - Standard.
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 males and two females (two pairs) will be provided, 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 delivery time to approximately 25 weeks. At least one member of each pair will be of known genotype and will carry the mutation if it is a mutant strain. Please note that 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. Price represents a repository maintenance fee, which includes the cost of recovery of the strain from the cryopreservation resource and the periodic replacement of the frozen embryos used for recovery.

Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice.
One to two pairs will be recovered to establish a Dedicated Supply of mice. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services: Tel: 1-800-422-6423 or 1-207-288-5845; Email: jaxservices@jax.org.

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.
