Description
Homozygous mutant mice are viable and fertile. Studies employing heterozygous mutant mice (where the duplication exists only on one chromosome) indicate that mutant mice weigh less than their wildtype litter mates. Spleens are noted to be slightly smaller than those from wild type mice. Mutant mice also exhibit impaired contextual fear conditioning. Male heterozygotes have been shown to be hyperactive in open field analysis. This mutant mouse may be useful in studies exploring the consequences of duplications involving the SMS critical interval. (Mice bearing the reciprocal deficiency mutation are also available; see Stock: 005535)

Development
Chromosome-engineering cassettes were inserted into mouse chromosome 11 of 129S5/SvEvBrd-derived AB2.2 embryonic stem (ES) cells, bracketing a span of approximately 3 Mb between the Cops (proximal point) and Zfp179 (distal point) loci. The cassette placed at the distal locus contained most of the Zfp179 gene (excluding exon 16), a tyrosinase minigene, a 5' portion of an hprt minigene, a loxP site and neomycin resitance gene. The cassette placed at the proximal locus contained Cops exons III to VI, a puromycin resistance gene, a loxP site, a 3' portion of an hprt minigene and a Krt1-14-agouti transgene. Double-targeted ES cells were subjected to transient cre recombinase expression with subsequent selection of recombinants buy using HAT media. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6-Tyr^c-Brdblastocysts and the resulting chimeric mice were mated to C57BL/6-Tyr^c-Brd mice for nine generations before being mated to C57BL/6J at The Jackson Laboratory.

Supply Notes

Cryopreserved Embryos This strain is also available as cryopreserved embryos from our Repository. Orders for cryopreserved embryos are supplied subject to a signed agreement that must be returned to the Customer Service Department after order placement. Experienced technicians at The Jackson Laboratory have recovered frozen embryos of this strain successfully. We will provide you enough embryos to perform two embryo transfers. The Jackson Laboratory does not guarantee successful recovery at your facility. For complete information on purchasing embryos from our repository, please visit our Cryopreserved Embryos web page. Cryorecovery - Standard. The recovery process begins when a signed agreement form is returned to the Customer Service Department after order placement. Although results vary by strain, at least two males and two females (two pairs) will be provided, typically within 15 weeks of our receipt of the signed agreement form. If the first recovery attempt is unsuccessful or only one pair is recovered, a second recovery will be done, extending the delivery time to approximately 25 weeks. At least one member of each pair will be of known genotype and will carry the mutation if it is a mutant strain. Please note that pairs may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation of the strain. Mating schemes are sometimes modified for successful cryopreservation. Price represents a repository maintenance fee, which includes the cost of recovery of the strain from the cryopreservation resource and the periodic replacement of the frozen embryos used for recovery. Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice. One to two pairs will be recovered to establish a Dedicated Supply of mice. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services, Tel: 1-800-422-6423 or 1-207-288-5845. This strain is included in the Induced Mutant Resource Colony 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.
