Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Strain Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Transgenic Species laboratory mouse Background Strain NOD Donor Strain (C57BL/6 x BALB/c)F1 Donating Investigator Linda Sherman, The Scripps Research Institute H2 Haplotype g7 Generation N19F4+N1p (15-JAN-06) Appearance
pink-eyed, albino
Related Genotype: A/A Tyrc/TyrcStrain Description
Transgenic mice, commonly referred to as NOD.clone-4 TCR, are viable, fertile, normal in size, normoglycemic and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. The TCR expressed from this transgene is specific for influenza virus A/PR/8 hemagglutinin (HA) in the context of the MHC class I molecule H2-Kd. FACS analysis of pancreatic lymph node indicates CFSE treated NOD clone-4 T cells adoptively transferred into NOD.InsHA (Stock No. 005685) proliferate vigorously and there is a 2-3-fold increase in the percentage of dividing clone-4 TCR, CD8+ T cells when compared to BALB/cBy (Stock Nos. 005307 and 005533) or B10.D2 (Stock Nos. 005308 and 005534). HA specific reactivity not tolerance is observed.This mouse is further modified with the Thy1a allele, rather than the alternate allele Thy1b present in C57BL/10, DBA/2, BALB/c and NOD/Lt mice. Thus, cell populations derived from these transgenic mice can be distinguished from syngeneic host and other mice with the alternate allele via flow cytometry. The presence of Thy1a serves as a marker for following donor CD8+ T cells in vitro.
This transgenic model is useful in the study of T-cell recognition of defined antigen, specifically HA, in the islets of NOD-InsHA mice.
Strain Development
The Tcra and Tcrb transgenes encode a Tcr cDNA from Clone 4 derived from a B10.D2-Hc1 H2d H2-T18c/nSn mouse previously immunized with Influenza virus A/PR/8. The clone 4 transgenic constructs were co-injected and co-inserted in (C57BL/6 x BALB/c)F1 oocytes. Transgene positive mice were backcrossed to BALB/cBy-Thy1a congenic prior to crossing to NOD/Lt for 19 generations. In 2005, The Jackson Laboratory imported this transgenic strain at generation N19F4. Upon arrival the strain was mated to NOD/LtJ (stock No. 001976) prior to mating Tg/? x Tg/?. FACS analysis performed at The Jackson Laboratory confirms Thy1a allele is homozygous.

| Molecular Note | Tcra and Tcrb cDNAs were isolated from Clone-4, a CTL line derived from a B10.D2-Hc1 H2d H2-t18c/nSnJ mouse immunized with influenza virus A/PR/8. A Tcra cDNA fragment representing the V-J exon, containing Valpha10, was cloned into a Tcra shuttle vector that includes a mouse Tcra-V promoter, the immunoglobulin heavy-chain enhancer EH, and the Tcra-C genes with some flanking DNA. Likewise, a Tcrb cDNA fragment representing the VDJ exon, containing Vbeta8.2, was cloned into a Tcrb shuttle vector including a mouse Tcrb-V promoter, EH, and the Tcrb-C genes with some flanking DNA. The plasmid constructs were coinjected. [MGI Ref ID J:90982] [MGI Ref ID J:99756] | ||

| General Note |
The Thy1 locus determines an antigen present on cells of the thymus, a number of mouse leukemias, brain, and in lesser amounts on lymph node and spleen cells. The allele Thy1a determines an antigenic specificity, Thy-1.1, found in the AKR and RF strains; the allele Thy1b determines an antigenic specificity, Thy-1.2, found in the C3HeB/Fe and many other strains (J:5243, J:5012, J:4469). The Thy1 antigen is probably present on all T lymphocytes and absent from all B lymphocytes, and it thus serves as a valuable T-cell marker (J:5243). It is very widely used in experimentsdesigned to determine the distribution and function of T-cells. Thy1 specifies a T-cell surface glycoprotein, T25, with a molecular weight of 25 kDa (J:5707). The protein appears to be anchored in the cell membrane by a lipid that is either phosphotidylinositol or closely related to it (J:12016). Thy1 may function in the cell membrane as a signal transduction molecule (J:8333). The Thy1 locus, or possibly a gene closely linked to it, controls quantitative expression of a protein that is the same size as Thy1 and is expressed on thymus and brain but not on lymph node and spleen cells (J:7900). | ||

| Supply Notes |
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. |

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
