Background Strain 129S6/SvEvTac
Donor Strain CBA/JEi via C57BL/6J
H2 Haplotypeb

Appearance
white-bellied agouti
Related Genotype: Aw/Aw

Important Note
This strain is segregating Gpi1b from C57BL/6.

Strain Description
Homozygous mice develop microcytic anemia, sparse hair, enlarged spleens and a slight cardiomegaly. Males are infertile. Homozygous mice on the C57BL/6J background develop hydrocephalus and less than 5% survive beyond 6 days. On the 129 background, 95% of mice survive to adulthood.

Strain Development
This spontaneous mutation arose on the CBA/JEi strain at The Jackson Laboratory in 1983 and was designated nm1054. nm1054 was transferred to the laboratory of Dr. Jane Barker (Jackson) and backcrossed to C57BL/6J for 15 generations. Dr. Mark Fleming (Children's Hospital, Boston) received the colony in 2001 and backcrossed it to 129S6/SvEvTac for 11 generations. The Jackson Laboratory imported this strain in 2006.

Gene & Allele Details

Allele Symbol Del(1)1Brk
Allele Name deletion, Chr 1, Jane Barker 1
Common Name(s) Del1Brk; Steap3nm1054; nm1054;
Strain of OriginCBA/J
General Note A transgene comprising the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) RPCI-22 11D19, containing Steap3 and C1ql2, restored normal hemoglobin levels in mice homozygous for the deletion. Three overlapping BAC transgenes encompassing the rest of the deletion region failed to affect the phenotype, as did a truncated transgene derived from RPCI-22 11D19 that contained only C2ql2. J:103440

The anemia phenotype of the homozygous mice is recapitulated by a targeted mutation of Steap3, which also fails to complement the deletion in trans. The phenotype of the complex heterozygote is described above. J:103440

Molecular Note This spontaneous deletion encompasses approximately 400 kb and removes all or part of six genes at about 63.1-64.1 cM on Chr 1. [MGI Ref ID J:103440]
 
Allele Symbol Gpi1b
Allele Name b variant
Gene Symbol and Name Gpi1, glucose phosphate isomerase 1
Chromosome 7
Gene Common Name(s) AMF; GNPI; Gpi-1; Gpi-1r; Gpi-1s; Gpi-1t; Gpi1-r; Gpi1-s; Gpi1-t; NLK; Org; PGI; PHI; SA-36; glucose phosphate isomerase 1, regulatory; glucose phosphate isomerase 1, structural; glucose phosphate isomerase 1, temporal;
Molecular Note This allele determines a faster migrating variant of the encoded enzyme and occurs in the wild and in strains BUB/Bn, CBA/J, CBA/CaJ, C3Heb/FeJ, C57BL/6J, C57BL/6J-ob, SEA/GJ and SWR/J. Sequencing analysis identified four nucleotide differences between this allele and Gpi1b. Two differences were silent, while a third difference at position 282 predicts an aspartate for the a allele and an asparagine for the b allele. A fourth difference in the 3' untranslated region was also noted. [MGI Ref ID J:28033]

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.
