Generation DefinitionsDescription
This targeted mutant was created and characterized by Deltagen, Inc. View phenotypic data developed by Deltagen.Development
The construct insert is reported to be "Lac0-SA-IRES-lacZ-Neo555G/Kan." Upon arrival at The Jackson Laboratory, these mice had been backcrossed at least 5 generations to C57BL/6 mice.

- abnormal afterhyperpolarization
- the peak amplitude of apamin-insensitivie medium afterhyperpolarization current of dentate gyrus granule cells is decreased compared to in wild-type mice (MGI Ref ID J:142688)
- however, apamin-insensitive medium afterhyperpolarization currents in CA1 pyramidal cells are normal (MGI Ref ID J:142688)
- apamin-insensitive slow afterhyperpolarization current of dentate gyrus granule cells is reduced 50% compared to in wild-type cells (MGI Ref ID J:142688)

- heterozygotes require a lower dose of metrazol to induce various seizure stages compared to wild-type mice (MGI Ref ID J:101679)
- nervous system phenotype
- increased susceptibility to pharmacologically induced seizures
- heterozygotes require a lower dose of metrazol to induce various seizure stages compared to wild-type mice (MGI Ref ID J:101679)

| Molecular Note | Insertion of a lacZ/IRES/neo cassette resulted in the deletion of bases 418 to 535. RT-PCR analysis detects a gene transcript at high levels in brain, spinal cord, pituitary gland and adrenal gland and at lower levels in eye, thymus, lymph nodes, gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, cecum, colon, testis, epididymis, prostate gland, ovary and white fat; beta-galactosidase expression is not detectable in any tissue.

Cryopreserved Mice - Ready for Recovery
Animals Provided
Price (US dollars $) Cryorecovery* $2250.00 At least two mice that carry the mutation (if it is a mutant strain) will be provided. Their genotypes may not reflect those discussed in the strain description. Please inquire for possible genotypes and see additional details below.
Standard Supply
Cryopreserved. Ready for recovery. Please refer to pricing and supply notes on the strain data sheet for further information.
Supply Notes
- Cryorecovery - Standard.
Progeny testing is not required.
The average number of mice provided from recovery of our cryopreserved strains is 10. The total number of animals provided, their gender and genotype will vary. We will fulfill your order by providing at least two pair of mice, at least one animal of each pair carrying the mutation of interest. Please inquire if larger numbers of animals with specific genotype and genders are needed. Animals typically ship between 11 and 14 weeks from the date of your order. If a second cryorecovery is needed in order to provide the minimum number of animals, animals will ship within 25 weeks. IMPORTANT NOTE: The genotypes of animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation, or that discussed in the strain description. Please inquire about possible genotypes which will be recovered for this specific strain. The Jackson Laboratory cannot guarantee the reproductive success of mice shipped to your facility. If the mice are lost after the first three days (post-arrival) or do not produce progeny at your facility, a new order and fee will be necessary.Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice.
Mice recovered can be used to establish a dedicated colony to contractually supply you mice according to your requirements. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services, Tel: 1-800-422-6423 (from U.S.A., Canada or Puerto Rico only) or 1-207-288-5845 (from any location).
