Mating System +/+ sibling x Heterozygote (Female x Male) 29-AUG-06 Species laboratory mouse Generation N5+N1F11 (19-AUG-11)
Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Clifford Tabin, Harvard Medical School Description
This strain expresses a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and a mutant form of the human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain from the endogenous Shh locus. The mutant human estrogen receptor does not bind natural ligand at physiological concentrations but will bind the synthetic ligand, 4-hydroxytamoxifen. Restricted to the cytoplasm, the Cre/ESR1 protein can only gain access to the nuclear compartment after exposure to tamoxifen. Tamoxifen administration induces Cre recombinase expression in all cells that express the endogenous gene resulting in the deletion of the first 35 base pairs following the ATG. Homozygous mice are not viable or fertile. Heterozygous mutant mice are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of limb patterning and development.Development
A targeting vector containing a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and a mutant form of the human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain was inserted at the ATG of Shh. The construct was electroporated into 129S6/SvEv-derived TC-1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were crossed to C57BL/6 mice, and then backcrossed to the same for 5 generations.

| Site of Expression | tamoxifen inducible Cre recombinase protein fused to a mutant form of the human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain; expression in all cells that express the Shh gene | ||
| Expressed Gene | cre, cre recombinase, bacteriophage P1 | ||
| Cre recombinase is an enzyme derived from the bacteriophage P1 that specifically recognizes loxP sites. Cre has been shown to effectively mediate the excision of DNA located between loxP sites. After the excision event, the DNA ends recombine leaving a single loxP site in place of the intervening sequence. | |||
| Driver Note | Shh | ||
| Inducible Note | induced by tamoxifen | ||
| Molecular Note | A cassette containing CreERT2 was inserted at the ATG. Upon recombination, the first 35 base pairs after the ATG were deleted. Cre was produced in all cells in which the endogenous mRNA was normally expressed. [MGI Ref ID J:92504] | ||

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 Information
