Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) 01-MAR-06 Species laboratory mouse Generation F?+11 (20-DEC-06) Donating Investigator Brian Schaefer, Uniformed Services Univ. Health Sciences Description
These transgenic mice express enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP) under the direction of the human ubiqutin C promoter. Mice homozygous for the transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These mice express GFP in all tissues examined. Certain hematapoetic cell types display distinct expression levels of GFP, allowing identification of different cells types by FACS analysis. GFP expression is uniform within a cell type lineage and remains constant throughout development. T cells have a 2-fold higher GFP expression than CD19+B220+ B cells or peripheral blood cells. Leukocytes and red blood cells from homozygous mice fluoresce at approximately twice the level of cells from hemizygous mice. This mutant mouse strain represents a useful tool in studies related to hematopoetic cell differentiation and in vivo tracking of leukocytes.Development
A transgenic construct containing an enhanced green fluorescent protein open reading frame under the control of the human ubiqutin C promoter was microinjected into fertilized C57BL/6 oocytes. Mice were screened for genomic integration of the transgene by PCR and for GFP expression in peripheral blood leukocytes. The resulting female mouse exhibiting the desired phenotype was bred to a male C57BL/6J mouse. F1 progeny from this cross that expressed GFP were intercrossed to produce homozygotes.

| Expressed Gene | GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, jellyfish | ||
| Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria, is a versatile reporter molecule which has found use in many biological applications. In some constructs the original molecule has been modified in order to enhance its fluorescence intensity (EGFP, enhanced GFP). When utilized in a transgenic construct, tissue expressing sufficient amounts of GFP will fluoresce when exposed to a 488 nm light source. | |||
