Description
This strain carries the "RIP-Cre" transgene construct (containing a 668 bp fragment of the rat insulin II promoter, Cre recombinase with a nuclear localization sequence, and a 2.1 kb fragment from the human growth hormone gene). Hemizygous mice carrying this transgene are phenotypically normal and overexpresss cre specifically in pancreatic beta cells. This transgene strain is used in combination with mice carrying floxed targeted mutations to create various pancreatic beta cell-specific gene knockouts using the "Cre-lox" system. Results from several different laboratories have shown that this transgenic strain is at least 85% efficient in achieving pancreatic beta cell-specific recombination. It should also be noted that the transgene in this line has been found to be expressed at a low level in the hypothalamus. In some cases this has resulted in a phenotype due to deletion of the floxed allele in this region of the brain. It has also been shown that these transgenic mice may spontaneously develop glucose intolerance and impaired insulin secretion developing at 6-8 weeks of age. It is recommended that users include naive "RIP-Cre" mice (i.e., those not bred to a floxed mutant) among the controls used in experiments.

Development
A transgenic construct containing a 668 bp rat insulin II promoter, nuclear localization sequence-modified Cre recombinase and a 2.1 kb fragment from the human growth hormone gene was injected into B6D2(F2) pronuclei. The allele was subsequently moved to a C57BL/6J background.

Genes & Alleles

Gene & Allele Information

Allele Symbol Tg(Ins2-cre)25Mgn
Allele Name transgene insertion 25, Mark A Magnuson
Allele Type Transgenic (Cre/Flp)
Common Name(s) Ins-Cre; Ins2cre; RIP Cre; RIP2-cre; Rip-cre; [RIP]-Cre;
Strain of Origin(C57BL/6 x DBA)F2
Site of Expressionpancreatic beta cells
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 Ins2, insulin 2, rat
Molecular Note This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of the rat insulin promoter (Ins2), which is active in pancreatic beta cells and in neurons of the hypothalmus. [MGI Ref ID J:51826]

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-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.

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.
