Additional information on Congenic nomenclature. Species laboratory mouse Background Strain C57BL/6 Donor Strain 129S4 via J1 ES cell line Donating Investigator Dr. Rudolf Jaenisch, Whitehead Institute (MIT) Description
This strain has loxP sites located on either side of the Ntf3 exon 2. Mice homozygous for this allele are viable, fertile and without behavioral abnormalities. If this strain is crossed with a transgenic strain bearing Cre recombinase, expression of the Ntf3 gene in offspring can be blocked in a tissue-specific manner depending on the promoter controlling the recombinase. Strains under the control of the rat nestin promoter block expression in the central nervous system; see strains 002275 and 002276.When bred to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in skeletal muscle (see Stock No. 007893 for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of muscle spindle development
Development
This strain possesses loxP sites introduced on either side of the Ntf3 exon 2.

involves: 129S1/Sv * C57BL/6 (conditional)
- behavior/neurological phenotype
- abnormal gait
- mice exhibit a wide-based, ataxic gait, similar to Erbb2 conditional mutants; onset of abnormalities is delayed and is less pronounced, however, relative to Erbb2 conditional animals (MGI Ref ID J:147957)
- abnormal posture
- mice show a flexed posture when inverted, similar to Erbb2 and Ntf3;Egr3 conditional mutants (MGI Ref ID J:147957)
- ataxia (MGI Ref ID J:147957)
- nervous system phenotype
- abnormal nervous system electrophysiology
- at P5, ventral root potentials are normal, but by P14, amplitudes of potentials are reduced by >75% compared to controls, similar to Ntf3;Egr3 conditional mutants (MGI Ref ID J:147957)
