Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Strain Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Targeted Mutation Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) Species laboratory mouse Donating Investigator Susan Dymecki, Harvard Medical School Generation ?+F16 (06-DEC-07) Strain Description
This knock-in strain expresses a variant of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae FLP1 recombinase gene under the direction of the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. The FLPe recombinase variant exhibits enhanced thermostability with recombination activity being four-fold and ten-fold that of wild type FLP at 37C and 40C, respectively. Homozygous mice for the knock-in allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter drives expression in a constitutive fashion from preimplantation onward. Extensive target gene recombination can be achieved in most tissue types, including cells of the developing germ line. This mutant strain is suitable for use as a deleter strain and serves as a source of FLP1-expressing primary cell lines.Strain Development
A knock-in construct (R26Fki) was built by inserting a FLPe cassette into a ROSA26 knock-in vector. This construct includes a neomycin resistance gene driven by the mouse phosphoglycerate kinase promoter. The construct was electroporated into 129S4/S4JaeSor-derived AK7 embryonic stem (ES) cells, thereby disrupting the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. Correctly targeted ES cells were utilized to generate chimeras.

| Molecular Note | An enhanced flp cassette containing a splice acceptor site was ligated to a downstream PGK-neo cassette and inserted at the endogenous locus. Efficient frt-specific recombination in transgenic mice carrying a reporter gene was reported to reflect constituitive expression of the Gt(ROSA)26Sor from preimplantation onward.

| 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. |
