Type Wild-Derived; Additional information on Wild-Derived Mice. Visit our online Nomenclature tutorial. Mating System Sibling x Sibling         (Female x Male) Species M. m. musculus (Czech) Generation F?+25 (07-JAN-09) Geographic Origin Studenec, Morovia

Appearance
white bellied agouti with a mutation causing heightened agouti yellow pigment
Related Genotype: unknown

Description
This strain has a coat color mutation which results in heightened agouti yellow pigment. This mutation has not yet been characterized in detail.

Development
Progenitors of the CZECHI/Ei strain were originally trapped in Studenec, Morovia in 1978 by Dr Richard Sage who gave mice to Dr Mike Potter at The National Cancer Institute who subsequently transferred mice ranging between F32 and F36 to Dr Eva Eicher at The Jackson Laboratory in 1996 from which time they have continued to be sibling inbred.

Supply Details

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.

Supply Notes

Usually shipped between four and eight weeks of age. This strain is included in the Mouse Mutant Resource collection. Genomic DNA is available for this strain from the Mouse DNA Resource.

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.
