Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Carrolee Barlow, Brain Cells Inc Description
Homozygous null mice have an embryonic lethal phenotype, failing to develop past embryonic day 8.5. Mice that are heterozygous for the targeted mutation are viable, fertile, normal in size and are more active than wildtype littermates. A reduced level of protein gene product is detected by immunoprecipitation and Western blot analysis of brain, testes and kidney, but protein levels are not reduced in liver. Beta galactosidase activity in heterozygotes aged embryonic day 13.5 is found in the developing lens and spinal cord. In adult heterozygotes, beta galactosidase activity is detected throughout the brain, especially in the cerebellar Purkinje cells and hippocampus. Beta galactosidase activity patterns mimic the endogenous gene expression pattern. NTE activity in brain tissue is reduced by 40%. Heterozygotes are more sensitive to organophosphate toxicity with increased motor activity and mortality. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of neuropathological hyperactivity, Gulf War Syndrome, and organophosphate-induced sub-acute neurotoxicity.Development
A targeting vector containing lacZ, neomycin resistance and herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase genes was used to disrupt exons 4 to 10. The lacZ coding sequence was inserted into exon 4, and exons 5 to 10 were deleted. The construct was electroporated into 129S6/SvEvTac-derived TC1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6J blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals from two independent ES cell clones were crossed. The offspring were mated to 129S1/SvImJ (STOCK#2448) mice.

The following phenotype information may relate to a genetic background differing from this JAX® Mice strain.
Pnpla6tm1Blw/Pnpla6+
involves: 129S6/SvEvTac * C57BL/6J
- mortality/aging
- increased sensitivity to xenobiotic induced morbidity/mortality
- heterozygotes exhibit significantly higher mortality rates than wild-type mice after i.p. injection of ethyl octylphosphonofluoridate (EOPF), an organophosphate compound that causes delayed neurotoxicity, at both 6 mg and 10 mg EOPF per kg body weight (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- however, no mortality or neuropathological effects are noted in either wild-type or heterozygous mutant mice with 1 mg EOPF per kg body weight (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- homeostasis/metabolism phenotype
- increased sensitivity to xenobiotic induced morbidity/mortality
- heterozygotes exhibit significantly higher mortality rates than wild-type mice after i.p. injection of ethyl octylphosphonofluoridate (EOPF), an organophosphate compound that causes delayed neurotoxicity, at both 6 mg and 10 mg EOPF per kg body weight (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- however, no mortality or neuropathological effects are noted in either wild-type or heterozygous mutant mice with 1 mg EOPF per kg body weight (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- behavior/neurological phenotype
- *normal* behavior/neurological phenotype
- under baseline conditions, heterozygotes display no gross defects in learning and memory or anxiety relative to wild-type mice (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- hyperactivity
- heterozygotes display higher baseline levels of motor activity than wild-type mice, as determined by total distance traveled and vertical rearing events in an open-field chamber over a 10-day test period (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- after exposure to EOPF (1 mg per kg body weight), motor activity is significantly higher in wild-type mice than in heterozygous mutant mice, indicating that even a minor chemical reduction of enzyme activity can lead to hyperactivity (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- increased vertical activity
- under baseline conditions, heterozygotes show a significantly higher number of vertical rearing events than wild-type mice over a 10-day test period in an open-field chamber (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- after exposure to EOPF (1 mg per kg body weight), the number of vertical events is significantly higher in wild-type mice than in heterozygous mutant mice (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
Pnpla6tm1Blw/Pnpla6tm1Blw
involves: 129S6/SvEvTac * C57BL/6J
- mortality/aging
- complete embryonic lethality during organogenesis
- embryogenesis phenotype
- abnormal neural tube closure
- mutant embryos display abnormal closing of the neural tube (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
- decreased embryo size

- embryonic growth arrest
- mutant embryos are growth arrested at E10 and E11 (MGI Ref ID J:82791)

- abnormal neural tube closure
- mutant embryos display abnormal closing of the neural tube (MGI Ref ID J:82791)
