Related Genotype: a/a Tyrp1b/Tyrp1b Myo5ad/Myo5adImportant Note
This strain is homozygous for Cdh23ahl, the age related hearing loss 1 mutation, which on this background results in progressive hearing loss that is already severe by three months of age.Description
DBA/2J is a widely used inbred strain that is valuable in a large number of research areas, including cardiovascular biology, neurobiology, and sensorineural research. Its characteristics are often contrasted with those of the C57BL/6J inbred strain (Stock No. 000664). DBA/2J mice show a low susceptibility to developing atherosclerotic aortic lesions (20 to 350 um2 atherosclerotic aortic lesions /aortic cross-section) following 14 weeks on an atherogenic diet (1.25% cholesterol, 0.5% cholic acid and 15% fat). They also exhibit high-frequency hearing loss beginning roughly at the time of weaning/adolescence (between three to four weeks of age) and becoming severe by two to three months of age. This strain possesses three recessive alleles that cause progressive cochlear pathology initially affecting the organ of Corti. Decreasing anteroventral cochlear nucleus volume decreases and neuron loss parallel the progression of peripheral hearing loss. Young DBA/2J inbred mice are also susceptible to audiogenic seizures.Aging DBA/2J mice develop progressive eye abnormalities that closely mimic human hereditary glaucoma. Defects include iris pigment dispersion, iris atrophy, anterior synechia (adhesion of the iris to the cornea), and elevated intraocularpressure (IOP). The onset of disease symptoms begins between three and four months of age with 56% of females and 15% of males showing signs of iris pigment epithelium loss and transillumination of the peripheral iris. By six to seven months of age, all mice demonstrate significant widespread transillumination and thickening of the iris border. Elevation of IOP is evident in some females by six months of age. By nine months of age, both sexes exhibit elevated IOP, with pressures higher in females (mean: 20.3 +/-79; 1.8 mmHg) compared to males (mean: 16.2 +/-79; 1.4 mmHg). Retinal histopathology reveals retinal ganglion cell, as well as GABAergic and cholinergic amacrine cell, loss. (Moon JI et al. 2005). Two alleles contribute to the eye phenotype, GpnmbR150X and Tyrp1isa; both are present in DBA/2J mice.
DBA/2J mice also show an extreme intolerance to alcohol and morphine. In 2002, Vance et al. reported that NK cells in DBA/2J exhibit the unique characteristic that they lack surface expression of CD94/NKG2A receptors. CD94/NKG2 receptors are normally expressed on the surface of most fetal NK cells. Expression of CD94/NKG2 is thought to play a role in self tolerance and the ability of NK cells to distinguish between MHC Ilow and MHC Ihigh target cells. CD94 is the product of the mouse Klrd1 locus, on mouse Chromosome 6. A subsequent publication by Wilhelm and coworkers identified a deletion in the 3' end of the Klrd1 gene of DBA/2J mice. This ~2.4 kb deletion does not prevent transcription of the gene, but prevents translation and cell surface expression of the CD94 protein. Analysis of DNA samples held at The Jackson Laboratory (unpublished results) confirmed the presence of the deletion of Klrd1 in the DBA/2J strain. The deletion, which occurred sometime between 1984 and 1989, is homozygous within our colonies, making DBA/2J mice naturally CD94 deficient.
Development
The DBA inbred strain is the oldest of all inbred strains of mice. Dr. CC Little began inbreeding in 1909 from a mouse colony segregating for coat color. During 1929 and 1930 crosses were made among substrains, and several new substrains were established including DBA/1 and DBA/2. DBA/1 and DBA/2 differ at a large number of loci (including the MHC H2 haplotype) which is most likely results from residual heterozygosity in the strain when the substrains were separated.

| General Note |
The mouse strain DBA/2J develops glaucoma associated with iris stromal atrophy and iris pigment dispersion phneotypes. Genetic studies defined two separate loci that contribute to the overall phenotype in the DBA/2J mouse, ipd and isa. Either mutation in a homozygous state contributes to glaucoma, while mice homozygous for both mutations develop an earlier onset and more severe iris disease. | ||
| Molecular Note | The underlying mutation responsible for the phenotype in the iris pigment dispersion mouse was identified as a C to T substitution that resulted in a nonsense mutation, Arg150stop. [MGI Ref ID J:75398] | ||

| General Note |
This is an allele characteristic of various inbred mouse strains including the following: A/HeJ, AKR/J, DBA/2J, NZB/B1NJ, SWR/J, B10.D2/oSnJ Hc was identified as a candidate gene for Abhr2 in a microarray analysis of lung mRNA from A/J, C3H/HeJ, and (A/J x C3H/HeJ)F1 x A/J backcross animals. Hc genotype shows statistically significant correlation to allergen-induced bronchial hyperresponsive phenotype. The A/J allele contains a 2 bp deletion resulting in deficient Hc mRNA and protein production and is associated with susceptibility to allergen-induced bronchial hyperresponsiveness. (J:108211) | ||
| Molecular Note | A 2 base "TA" deletion at positions 62 and 63 of an 83 base pair exon near the 5' end of the gene is found in the following mouse strains: A/HeJ, AKR/J, DBA/2J, NZB/B1NJ, SWR/J, B10.D2/oSnJ. The consequence of this deletion is the creation of a stop codon starting four bases after the deletion. A truncated product of 216 amino acids is predicted as a result although contradictory reports exist that a larger pro-C5 protein may be synthesized. Nevertheless, macrophages from mouse strains carrying this allele do not secrete complement 5. [MGI Ref ID J:23983] | ||

| General Note |
Mutations at the Myo5a locus lighten coat color through an abnormal morphology of melanocytes that causes uneven pigmentation of the hair shaft (J:11005). Most of these mutations also cause severe neurological defects; in some mutant forms, these defectslead to early death (J:12978), while in others life span is normal, but convulsions and loss of equilibrium occur after about four months of age (J:16915). Maltese dilution, as this mutation was originally called, is an old mutation of the mouse fancy. The blue-gray color of the hair produced by this mutation in nonagouti (a/a) mice is caused by clumping of the melanin pigment into a few large masses (J:12958). The melanocytes are misshapen, with fewer and thinner dendritic processes than wild-type melanocytes, and melanin granules are largely clumped around the nucleus (J:12970). Incorporation of tyrosine into melanin proceeds at a normal rate (J:12173), and the fine structure of the melanin granules is normal (J:5346). Cultured primary melanocytesfrom dilute homozygotes are normal in morphology but display clustering of melanosomes (J:37976). Griscelli disease (Chediak-Higashi-like syndrome, OMIM 214450) is a human autosomal recessive disorder whose symptoms include pigment dilution, immunodeficiency, and acute lethal lymphocyte and macrophage activation. Melanocyte malformation is characteristic of the pigment abnormality. The immunological abnormality includes absence of cutaneous hypersensitivity and impaired function of natural-killer cells. Griscelli disease resembles the dilute-lethal mouse mutant, except for the neurological disorder in the mouse. The locus for Griscelli disease colocalizes with the locus for myosin Va, which is mutated in at least some Griscelli patients. Griscelli disease is thus the homolog of mouse Maltese dilution (J:41253). The original Myo5ad mutation which identified the locuswas caused by insertion of an ecotropic murine leukemia virus (see Emv3) (J:6844, J:6587). All other mutations examined lack the virus. Reversions of Myo5ad to wild-type, which have been reported frequently, are caused by excision of the virusleaving exactly one long terminal repeat in place (J:7092). The virus is integrated into a noncoding region of the DNA (J:7751). | ||
| Molecular Note | This mutation is the result of the integration of the ecotropic murine leukemia virus Emv-3 into the normal Myo5ad gene. [MGI Ref ID J:6587] | ||

| General Note |
The mouse strain DBA/2J develops glaucoma associated with iris stromal atrophy and iris pigment dispersion phneotypes. Genetic studies defined two separate loci that contribute to the overall phenotype in the DBA/2J mouse, ipd and isa. Either mutation in a homozygous state contributes to glaucoma, while mice homozygous for both mutations develop an earlier onset and more severe iris disease. | ||
| Molecular Note | Expression of a BAC containing the wild-type Tyrp1 gene rescues the phenotype of isa mice. The isa phenotype has been identified in numerous aged stocks carrying Tyrp1b allele. It is therefore most probable, that the Tyrp1b alleleis responsible for the isa phenotype. [MGI Ref ID J:75398] | ||

| Molecular Note | Characterization of this allele shows an insertion of DNA comprised of a 5.5kb virus-like element, VL30, into the first intron of the agouti gene. The VL30 element itself contains an additional 5.5 kb sequence, flanked by 526 bp of direct repeats. The host integration site is the same as for at-2Gso and Aw-38J and includes a duplication of four nucleotides of host DNA and a deletion of 2 bp from the end of each repeat. Northern analysis of mRNA from skin of homozygotes shows a smaller agouti message and levels 8 fold lower than found in wild-type. [MGI Ref ID J:16984] [MGI Ref ID J:24934] | ||
