This strain is segregating for the retinal degeneration allele Pde6brd1.Description
Mice that are homozygous for the targeted allele and hemizygous for the transgene are viable and fertile. Although no endogenous mouse MAPT is detected, all six isoforms (including both 3R and 4R forms) of human MAPT are expressed. Hyperphosphorylated MAPT is detected in cell bodies and dendrites by three months of age. Paired helical filaments of aggregated insoluble MAPT can be isolated from brain tissue as early as two months of age. These mutant mice may be useful in studies examining the relationship between human MAPT and Alzheimer's disease pathogenesis.Development
Double mutant mice were generated by crossing transgenic mice (mouse line 8C) with Mapt targeted mutant mice. The targeted mutant allele was created by inserting EGFP coding sequence into the first Mapt exon, disrupting expression of the Mapt gene and producing a cytoplasmic EGFP protein fused to the first 31 MAPT amino acids (see Stock Number 004779). The transgenic allele consists of a PAC insert of 200-250 kb that includes the coding sequence, intronic regions and regulatory elements of the human MAPT gene. The targeted allele was created in 129S4/SvJae-derived J1 embryonic stem cells which were subsequently injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts. The transgenic allele was generated in embryos derived from a cross between Swiss Webster females and B6D2F1 males.

Health & husbandry
The genotypes of the animals provided may not reflect those discussed in the strain description or the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation. Please inquire for possible genotypes for this specific strain.
Health & Colony Maintenance Information
Colony Maintenance
Breeding & Husbandry The targeted allele is maintained in a homozygous state while the transgenic allele is maintained in a hemizygous state. Mice that are heterozygous for the Mapt targeted mutation and hemizygous for the MAPT transgene will be distributed. Breeder pairs will also be heterozygous for the targeted allele and hemizygous for the trangene by the same. Expected coat color is agouti.

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 and Purchasing Information
