Strain Details
Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Congenic Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Strain Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Transgenic Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) Species laboratory mouse Donating Investigator Jamey Marth, University of California at San Diego Generation N4+6F9N1F1 (06-DEC-07) Strain Description
Homozygous mice are viable and have no major defects. This strain expresses Cre recombinase in thymocytes.Strain Development
A transgenic construct containing a Cre recombinase gene under the control of the Lck promoter was injected into B6DBA F1 zygotes and founder animals obtained.
Gene & Allele Details
| Allele Symbol | Tg(Lck-cre)548Jxm | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Allele Name | transgene insertion 548, Jamey Marth | ||
| Common Name(s) | Lck-cre; Tg(Lck-cre); TgN(Lck-cre)548Jxm; | ||
| Mutation Made By | Jamey Marth, University of California at San Diego | ||
| Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x CBA)F2 | ||
| Site of Expression | thymocytes | ||
| 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 | Lck, lymphocyte protein tyrosine kinase, mouse, laboratory | ||
| General Note | Homozygous transgenic mice are viable and have no major defects. | ||
| Molecular Note | This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse lck promoter, active in the T cell lineage. [MGI Ref ID J:67674] | ||

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 Induced Mutant Resource Colony 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.Ordering and Purchasing Information
