GenerationF?+3p
 
Donating Investigator Brian Sauer,   Stowers Institute for Medical Research

Description
This strain contains a Cre recombinase gene under the control of a human cytomegalovirus minimal promoter. This promoter directs transcription such that Cre recombinase is expressed in all tissues.

Development
These were made at DuPont in 1988 by pronuclear injection of zygotes from a cross of female C57BL/6NCrlBR x male DBA/2NCrlBR (ie hybrid BDF1 from Charles River). Male and female F1 progeny from the original founder were intercrossed for several generations, and a hemizygous transgenic was then outcrossed with FVB/N mice for several (~3) generations to produce a homozygous transgenic line. The original founder was Tg(O-Eco-Cre)DuPG140, founder #140. It carries the hCMV-cre expression cassette on a HindIII fragment from plasmid pBS185 (Sauer and Henderson, 1990)

Genes & Alleles

Gene & Allele Information

Allele Symbol Tg(hCMV-cre)140Sau
Allele Name transgene insertion 1, Brian Sauer
Allele Type Transgenic (Cre/Flp)
Common Name(s) hCMV-Cre;
Mutation Made By Brian Sauer,   Stowers Institute for Medical Research
Strain of OriginC57BL/6NCrlBR x DBA/2NCrlBR
Site of Expressionwidespread expression, including germline
Expressed Gene cre, cre recombinase, bacteriophage P1
Cre recombinase is an enzyme derived from the bacteriophage P1 that specifically recognizes loxP sites. Cre has been shown to effectively mediate the excision of DNA located between loxP sites. After the excision event, the DNA ends recombine leaving a single loxP site in place of the intervening sequence.
Promoter CMV, cytomegalovirus, human
Molecular Note This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of a human cytomegalovirus promoter/enhancer, active in most cells and tissues. [MGI Ref ID J:75205]

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.
    One to two pairs will be recovered to establish a Dedicated Supply of mice. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services, Tel: 1-800-422-6423 or 1-207-288-5845.

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.
