Description
B6;SJL-Tg(tetoplacZ)2Mam transgenic mice serve as reporter/tester mice for transgenic mice expressing the tetracycline-controlled transactivator proteins tTA or rtTA. This strain carries a beta-galactosidase (lacZ) reporter gene under the control of a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE; tetO), consisting of the human cytomegalovirus early promoter fused to tet operator sequences. When these mice are mated with transgenic mice expressing tTA or rtTA, lacZ transcription may be induced by the administration (or withdrawl, if tTA is used) of tetracycline, or its analog, doxycyline. Beta-galactosidase activity is not observed in the absence of tTA or rtTA transgene.

Development
A transgenic construct containing a nuclear localization signal, the beta-galactosidase structural gene, an intron, and a poly(A) signal was injected into fertilized B6;SJL mouse eggs. Founder animals were obtained.

Genes & Alleles

Gene & Allele Information

Allele Symbol Tg(tetop-lacZ)2Mam
Allele Name transgene insertion 2, Lothar Hennighausen
Common Name(s) TetO-beta-gal;
Strain of Origininvolves: C57BL/6 * SJL
Site of ExpressionWhen crossed with a strain expressing rTA or rtTA, expression of the transgene may be induced in the bitransgenic progeny by the administration or withdrawal of tetracycline or its analog, doxycycline.
Expressed Gene lacZ, beta-galactosidase, E. coli
Promoter tetO, tet operator,
General Note Four lines were produced (G1-G4).

In mice carrying both this transgene and a transgene expressing tTA or rtTA, lacZ transcription may be induced by the administration (or withdrawal, if tTA is used) of tetracycline, or its analog, doxycyline. No beta-galactosidase activity is observed in the absence of a tTA transgene.

Molecular Note The construct contains a nuclear localization signal, the beta-galactosidase structural gene, an intron, and a poly(A) signal. Expression of beta-galactosidase is controlled by a tetracycline-responsive promoter element (TRE) consisting of the human cytomegalovirus early promoter fused to tet operator sequences. No beta-galactosidase activity was observed in the absence of a tTA transgene. [MGI Ref ID J:92587]

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.
