Additional information on Genetically Engineered Mutant Mice.
Mating SystemHomozygote x Homozygote         (Female x Male)
Specieslaboratory mouse
GenerationN1F?+F11 (22-MAY-08)
 
Donating Investigator Elaine Fuchs,   The Rockefeller University

Description
These mice possess loxP sites on either side of exon 3 of the targeted gene. Mice that are homozygous for this allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.

When bred to a strain expressing Cre recombinase in the epithelial cells of the intestine (see Stock No. 004586 for example), this mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of intestinal hyperplasia.

Development
A loxP site flanked targeting vector containing neomycin resistance and phosphoglycerate kinase genes was utilized in the construction of this mutant. This selection cassette was inserted downstream of exon 3 of the targeted gene, and another loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 3. The construct was electroporated into 129X1/SvJ derived RW-4 embryonic stem (ES) cells which were transiently transfected with a vector containing the Cre-recombinase gene under the control of the cytomegalovirus promoter to remove the selection cassette. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6J blastocysts.

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.
