Related Genotype: Tyrp1b/Tyrp1b Tyrc/TyrcStrain Description
Hybridomas are produced by fusing mouse meloma cells that are deficient in adenosine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) with spleen cells from mice immunized with specific antigens. A selection system using AAT (adenosine, aminopterin, and thymidine) medium eliminates all but the fusion cells that are APRT+ . Successful hybridomas must also retain the Igh heavy chain locus on chromosome 12 and one of the Igh light chain loci. The Robertsonian chromosome Rb(8.12)5Bnr can be used to produce hybridomas at a high frequency. Selecting for the Aprt locus on chromosome 8 also selects for the Igh locus on chromosome 12 because the two loci are "genetically linked" by the Robertsonian fusion chromosome. This chromosomal aberration congenic was created by backcrossing the Robertsonian chromosome Rb(8.12)5Bnr on the BALB/cByJ genetic background by Dr. Muriel Davisson at The Jackson Laboratory.

| Standard Supply | Repository-Live. A collection of over 1000 strains maintained as live colonies. Individual colonies are sized to meet current customer demand. Delivery for orders of 10 mice or less ranges on average from one to eight weeks; mice are generally shipped between four to six weeks of age with a maximum shipping age of ~nine weeks. Colony sizes do not generally support stringent age specifications for large volumes of mice; however custom orders and larger quantities of mice are easily arranged. Estimated ship dates for all orders provided within 48 hours of order placement. |
