Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Stock Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Spontaneous Mutation Species laboratory mouse Generation N30F1p Strain Description
Mice homozygous for the quivering-Jackson spontaneous mutation (Spnb4qv-J) are characterized by locomotor instability, pronounced quivering, deafness, varying degrees of paralysis of the hindlegs, clasping of the hindlegs when held up by the tail, and priapism in most males. Serial sections of the brain, cord, and nerve roots reveal no abnormalities, and urinary amino acids are normal. The inner ear is histologically normal and has normal thresholds for compound action potentials at the round window. However, the thresholds for potentials in the inferior colliculus are twice as high as normal, showing that the deafness, unlike that of any other deaf mutants in the mouse, is of central origin. Viability of homozygous mutant mice at weaning is normal, but the life span is short, the majority dying before 5 months of age. Males are sterile, but females may be fertile and nurse their young.Strain Development
The spontaneous mutation quivering Jackson (Spnb4qv-J) arose in The Jackson Laboratory vibrating (Pitpnavb) strain when it was at generation F40 in 1974. The vibrating mutation arose in strain DBA/2J and was outcrossed once to C57BL/6J before inbreeding. The first affected Spnb4qv-J female to breed was mated to a C3FeB6-A/Aw-J hybrid, and the stock was maintained by mating a quivering female to a C3FeB6-A/Aw male in the cross generation and sibling pairs in the intercross generation. It was cryopreserved in 1986 by mating heterozygous males to heterozygous females at N30.

| 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. |
