| FcRn -/- mice are unable to recycle IgG or albumin and degrade IgG at an accelerated rate, resulting in low plasma expression levels of both. Further, they are unable to transport IgG across epithelial barriers (e.g., neonatal gut and placenta), allowing for the study of maternal passive immunity. This model may be useful in testing therapeutic compounds and their involvement in the FcRn pathway, or as a control for humanized FcRn transgenics. | |||||||||||||||

Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) 02-DEC-11 Species laboratory mouse Generation N11F12p+F9 (11-MAY-11)
Generation DefinitionsDevelopment
A targeting vector was designed to replace 1588 nucleotide fragments (encoding promoter sequence 5' of the transcriptional start site, exon 1, intron 2, and most of exon 2) with a PGK-Neor cassette. The vector was electroporated into 129X1/SvJ-derived ESV/J-1182 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient C57BL/6J blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were crossed to C57BL/6J mice. The mice were then backcrossed to C57BL/6J for 11 generations.

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 Information
