Additional information on Genetically Engineered Mutant Mice.
Mating SystemOvarian Transplant-Cross-Intercross         (Female x Male)
homozygous ovarian transplant host x C57BL/6J then obligate heterozygous offspring are intercrossed
Specieslaboratory mouse
GenerationF250+F1+N4 (07-MAY-08)

Development
The reeler 4 Jackson mutation arose spontaneously in the B6.129S2-Irf1tm1Mak/J strain (Stock No. 002762) at The Jackson Laboratory. This mutation has been maintained via ovarian transplant backcross-intercross to C57BL/6J and the targeted mutation has been bred out of this strain.

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-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 ~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 48 hours of order placement.
Supply Notes
  • Usually shipped between four and eight weeks of age.
  • This strain is included in the Mouse Mutant Resource collection.

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.
