Former Names B6.Cg-Tg(CAG-Bgeo/GFP)21Lbe/J (Changed: 31-JUL-08 ) B6.Cg-Tg(ACTB-Bgeo/GFP)21Lbe/J (Changed: 08-MAY-08 ) Type Congenic; Mutant Strain; Transgenic; Additional information on Genetically Engineered Mutant Mice. Mating System Inbred x Hemizygote (Female x Male) Species laboratory mouse Generation N14 (11-DEC-07) Donating Investigator IMR Colony, The Jackson Laboratory Description
These Z/EG transgenic mice constitutively express lacZ under the control of the CMV enhancer/chicken actin promoter. Expression is widespread with notable exceptions being liver and lung tissue. Expression is observed throughout all embryonic and adult stages. When crossed with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, lacZ expression is replaced with enhanced GFP expression in tissues expressing Cre. This double reporter system makes it possible to distinguish a lack of reporter expression from a lack of Cre recombinase expression while providing a means to assess Cre excision activity in live animals and cells.As an example, when crossed to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in olfactory sensory neurons (see Stock No. 006668), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in lineage tracing.
In an attempt to offer alleles on well-characterized or multiple genetic backgrounds, alleles are frequently moved to a genetic background different from that on which an allele was first characterized. It should be noted that the phenotype could vary from that originally described. We will modify the strain description if necessary as published results become available.
Development
The Z/EG transgene was designed with the CMV enhancer/chicken beta-actin promoter, a loxP-flanked Bgeo reporter/SV40 polyadenylation signal segment, and an enhanced GFP gene followed by a rabbit beta-globin polyadenylation sequence. This transgene was electroporated into (129X1/SvJ x 129S1/Sv)F1-derived R1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. ES cells expressing lacZ were selected and utilized in ES cell/diploid embryo aggregation in conjunction with CD1 outbred embryos resulting in chimeric animals. This strain was maintained by the donating investigator as a hemizygote by crosses to wildtype outbred CD1 mice for at least 3 generations prior to arrival at The Jackson Laboratory (as Stock No. 003920). Upon arrival, some mice were backcrossed to C57BL/6J for many generations to establish this congenic strain (Stock No. 004178).

Colony Maintenance
Breeding & Husbandry When maintaining a live colony, these Z/EG transgenic mice are bred to C57BL/6J or wildtype littermates. Compared to transgenic mice on a mixed background, mutants on this background may experience increased incidence of reduced offspring size and in utero and neonatal mortality. The majority of the lethality is postnatal with only a 10% loss of hemizygous mice by 2 weeks of age. Survival of pups is increased by delayed weaning and pups that survive will breed. Note: This transgenic line is available from The Jackson Laboratory on a STOCK background (Stock No. 003920), which is not subject to problems with postnatal mortality in a hemizygous state; homozygotes were not viable. This colony is currently being maintained by breeding hemizygotes with C57BL/6J (and reciprocal).
