Specieslaboratory mouse
H2 Haplotypebc (see, Fischer Lindahl K 1997)
GenerationF194 (03-JAN-08)

Appearance
white-bellied agouti, piebald
Related Genotype: Aw/Aw Ednrbs/Ednrbs

Important Note
This strain is homozygous for Cdh23ahl, the age related hearing loss 1 mutation, which on this background results in progressive hearing loss with onset after 10 months of age.

Strain Description
LP/J mice display a high susceptibility to audiogenic seizures. This strain is also reported to have a fairly high incidence of tumors that develop later in life, including mammary tumors, lymphoma, lung and soft-tissue sarcomas. LP/J mice are also homozygous for the spontaneous mutation piebald in the endothelin receptor type B gene (Ednrbs). The piebald spontaneous mutation is the result of a mutation in the endothelin receptor type B gene, Ednrb. Mice show irregular white spotting, the amount of which is greatly influenced by minor modifying genes. They also have dark eyes. The white areas of the coat are completely lacking in neural crest-derived melanocytes, and there is a reduction in the number of melanocytes in the choroid layer of the eye is reduced.

Molecular Note Genetic complementation tests have shown allelism between the mdfw (modifier of deaf waddler) locus and the ahl locus. Further analysis has identified an association between ahl and a G to A transition at nucleotide position 753 of Cdh23. This hypomorphic allele causes in frame skipping of exon 7 and reduced message stability. Twenty-seven strains classified with ahl and carrying the 753A allele include: CD1, RBF/DnJ, PL/J, AKR/J, RF/J, BALB/cBy, A/WySnJ, P/J, SENCARA/PtJ, DBA/1J, ALS/LtJ, C58/J, C57BLKS/J, 129P1/ReJ, C57BR/cd, SKH2/J, BUB/Bn, MA/MyJ, LP/J, 129X1/SvJ, NOR/LtJ, A/J, C57BL/6, NOD/LyJ, DBA/2J, ALR/LtJ, C57L/J. Strains classified with ahl that DO NOT carry this mutation include: C3H/HeSnJ, I/LnJ,YBR/Ei, MRL/MpJ. [J:86905]
 
Allele Symbol Disc1del
Allele Name deletion
Common Name(s) Disc1129S6;
Strain of Originvarious
Gene Symbol and Name Disc1, disrupted in schizophrenia 1
Chromosome 8
Gene Common Name(s) KIAA0457; SCZD9;
General Note This deletion appears in multiple strains of the 129 superfamily. See J:111837 for details. This deletion has further been identified in the following strains:101/RI, BTBR T+ Tf/J and LP/J J:118317
Molecular Note A 25 bp deletion of the locus causes a frame shift in the reading frame, resulting in 13 novel amino acids and a premature stop codon at exon 7. [J:107244]

Allele Name piebald
Common Name(s) s;

Chromosome 14
Gene Common Name(s) ABCDS; AU022549; ETB; ETBR; ETRB; Ednra; HSCR; HSCR2; Sox10m1; expressed sequence AU022549; piebald; s;
General Note Also called piebald spotting. This is a very old mutation of the mouse fancy, and was described in the scientific literature as early as 1920 (J23183). Some piebalds in existing stocks may be of independent origin. Homozygotes show irregular white spotting, the amount of which is greatly influenced by minor modifying genes (J:12952). Homozygotes have dark eyes. The white areas of the coat are completely lacking in melanocytes, and there is a reduction in the number of melanocytes in the choroid layer of the eye (J:15014, J:12970). There may also be defects in the structure of the iris, suggesting that pigment cells make some structural or inductive contribution to normal development (J:13123).Homozygotes may develop megacolon which is always associatedwith lack of ganglion cells in the distal portion of the colon. The incidence of megacolon is also affected by minor modifying genes (J:15014). Pigment cells and enteric ganglion cells of the colon are both derived from the neural crest, and Mayer (J:12725) has shown by explantation of embryonic tissues that the defect leading to white spotting is in the neural crest rather than in the skin. The defect probably consists of failure of pigment cells to differentiate in certain tissue environments rather than in failure to migrate (J:5036). The distribution of white areas in the skin and other organs is probably due to normal regional differences in these tissues in capacity to support pigmentation and not to regional heterogeneity among the pigment cells themselves (J:5220, J:5036, J:5060, J:5782).The piebald mutation was shown to be linked closely with Hr (J:299), later mapped to Chr 14 (J:52911). The localization has been refined in studies of induced mutations, using an intersubspecific backcross (J:16291).
Molecular Note This mutation is allelic to a targeted mutation for this gene. Homozygous mice produce approximately 25% of the normal levels of transcript from this allele. RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that no alterations in the coding sequence would result in any alteration of the amino acid sequence. A 5.5 kb retrotransposon-like element is found in intron 1. About 75% of the mRNA produced is an aberrant 6.5 kb form lacking exons 2-6 but containing exon 1. The remaining 25% of the mRNA formed is of normal, 4.4 kb, size. [J:110573] [J:22206] [J:56133]

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.
