Strain Information
Type Congenic; Mutant Strain; Targeted Mutation; Additional information on Genetically Engineered and Mutant Mice. Visit our online Nomenclature tutorial. Additional information on Congenic nomenclature. Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) 01-MAR-06 Species laboratory mouse Generation N4+2F6 (31-DEC-08) Donating Investigator William Kaelin, Dana Farber Cancer Institute Description
These mice contain the firefly luciferase (luc) gene inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. Expression of the luciferase gene is blocked by a loxP-flanked STOP fragment placed between the luc sequence and the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. This strain serves as a Cre reporter strain. When used in conjunction with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, successful Cre-mediated excision is indicated by luciferase expression in Cre-expressing tissues. Mice that are heterozygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities.Development
A targeting vector containing a PGK-neo cassette and a loxP-stop-loxP cassette upstream of the firefly luciferase (luc) gene was inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. The construct was introduced into 129S6/SvEvTac-derived TC-1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were bred to FVB mice and backcrossed for 4 generations on the FVB background.

| Molecular Note | The endogenous locus is interrupted by a construct comprising a loxP site, a neomycin resistance cassette with a strong, triple SV40 polyadenylation signal, and a second loxP site in the same orientation as the first followed by the cDNA sequence encoding firefly luciferase and the bovine growth hormone polyadenylation signal. In cells in which Cre recombinase is expressed, the DNA between the loxP sites is excised, along with one loxP site, permitting expression of the luciferase gene under control of the ubiquitous ROSA26 promoter.

Supply Details
| Standard Supply | Repository-Live. A collection of over 1000 strains maintained as live colonies. Individual colonies are sized to meet current customer demand. Delivery for orders of 10 mice or less ranges on average from one to eight weeks; mice are generally shipped between four to six weeks of age with a maximum shipping age of approximately nine weeks. Colony sizes do not generally support stringent age specifications for large volumes of mice; however custom orders and larger quantities of mice are easily arranged. Estimated ship dates for all orders provided within two business days following order placement. |

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
