Product Information
Strain Details
Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Strain Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Transgenic Species laboratory mouse Donating Investigator Minoo Rassoulzadegan, Universite de Nice Strain Development
Transgenic mice were generated expressing a testicular Cre recombinase driven by promoter sequences derived from the gene encoding synaptonemal complex protein 1 (Sycp1), expressed at the leptotene to zygotene stage of male meiosis. The founder line for this strain is #4-30.
Gene & Allele Details
| Allele Symbol | Tg(Sycp1-cre)4Min | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Allele Name | transgene insertion 4, Minoo Rassoulzadegan | ||
| Common Name(s) | SYCP-Cre; Sycp1-Cre; | ||
| Mutation Made By | Minoo Rassoulzadegan, Universite de Nice | ||
| Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x DBA/2)F1 | ||
| Site of Expression | male germ cells; expressed at the leptotene-zygotene stage of male meiosis | ||
| 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 | Sycp1, synaptonemal complex protein 1, mouse, laboratory | ||
| General Note | The original founder number for this line was #4-30. | ||
| Molecular Note | This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of a mouse synaptonemal complex protein 1 promoter. This promoter is active at the leptotene to zygotene stage of male meiosis. [J:67933] | ||

Cryopreserved Embryos This strain is also available as cryopreserved embryos from our Repository. Orders for cryopreserved embryos are supplied subject to a signed agreement that must be returned to the Customer Service Department after order placement. 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 from our repository, please visit our Cryopreserved Embryos web page. 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. |

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.Ordering and Purchasing Information
