Description
The Atp7 genes encode Cu2+ ATPases. Atp7a is the mouse ortholog of the human ATP7A gene, which is mutated in children with Menke's syndrome. The range of defects in both Menke's syndrome and in mice having mutations of Atp7a--the mottled series of mutants--are due to deficiencies in a number of copper-requiring enzymes, in turn attributed to an intracellular copper transport defect. Thus, it is likely that the Atp7a gene product functions as a copper transport protein. (For brief review and references, see Levinson et al., 1994.)

Atp7aMo-pew, the mottled-pewter mutation, has the mildest effect of the known mutations at this locus. The sole phenotype noted in hemizygous males and homozygous females is their pale, silvery gray coat color. The coats of affected mice of both sexes are initially agouti; males become pewter by about 4 weeks and females at 5-6 weeks of age. Heterozygous females have normal, agouti coats throughout life. (Fox and Eicher 1978; Reynolds 2000). Both sexes are fertile (Fox and Eicher 1978).

At the molecular level, the Atp7aMo-pew mutation consists of a single point mutation at nucleotide 3074, in exon 15. The G-->A transition causes the substitution of a threonine for an alanine. The affected amino acid occurs in a seven amino acid sequence that is highly conserved among the twenty-one known or presumed copper-transporting ATPases. This sequence comprises the transduction domain in the sixth transmembrane segment of the protein and is believed to be responsible for its copper binding and transport functions (Levinson et al., 1997.)

Development
Atp7aMo-pew occurred spontaneously in 1976 on the CBA/J inbred strain at The Jackson Laboratory.

Supply Notes
  • Cryopreserved Embryos
    This strain is also available as cryopreserved embryos. Orders for cryopreserved embryos may be placed with our Customer Service Department. Experienced technicians at The Jackson Laboratory have recovered frozen embryos of this strain successfully. We will provide you enough embryos to perform two embryo transfers. The Jackson Laboratory does not guarantee successful recovery at your facility. For complete information on purchasing embryos, please visit our Cryopreserved Embryos web page.
  • Cryorecovery - Standard.
    We will fulfill your order by providing at least two pair of mice, at least one animal of each pair carrying the mutation of interest. The total number of animals provided, their gender and genotype will vary. Please inquire if larger numbers of animals with specific genotype and genders are needed. Animals typically ship between 13 and 16 weeks from the date of your order. If a second cryorecovery is needed in order to provide the minimum number of animals, animals will ship within 25 weeks. IMPORTANT NOTE: The genotypes of animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation, or that discussed in the strain description. Please inquire about possible genotypes which will be recovered for this specific strain. The Jackson Laboratory cannot guarantee the reproductive success of mice shipped to your facility. If the mice are lost after the first three days (post-arrival) or do not produce progeny at your facility, a new order and fee will be necessary.

    Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice.
    Mice recovered can be used to establish a dedicated colony to contractually supply you mice according to your requirements. Price by quotation.

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.
