Strain Information
Type Congenic; Mutant Strain; Transgenic; Additional information on Genetically Engineered and Mutant Mice. Visit our online Nomenclature tutorial. Additional information on Congenic nomenclature. Mating System Hemizygote x +/+ sibling (Female x Male) 16-APR-08 Species laboratory mouse Generation N10+N1F6 (15-JAN-09) Donating Investigator Brian Popko, University of Chicago Description
These transgenic mice have a tamoxifen inducible Cre-mediated recombination system driven by the mouse Plp1, proteolipid protein (myelin) 1 promoter. The transgene insert contains a fusion product involving Cre recombinase and a mutant form of the mouse estrogen receptor ligand binding domain. The mutant mouse 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. When crossed with a strain containing a loxP site flanked sequence of interest, the offspring are useful for generating tamoxifen-induced, Cre-mediated targeted deletions. Tamoxifen administration allows for ablation of predetermined genes in oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells, and will also induce Cre recombination in developing embryos of treated mothers and in cultured cells derived from transgenic mice. Mice hemizygous for the transgenic insert are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. Immunohistochemical analysis of brain, optic and sciatic nerve tissue reveals that the cre/Esr1 expression mimics the endogenous promoter expression pattern.Development
A transgenic construct containing a 2.4 kb sequence of mouse proteolipid protein (myelin) 1 promoter, sequence encoding cre/Esr1 and SV40 polyadenylation site sequence was injected into B6D2F1 donor eggs. Founder line 3 was subsequently established. Founder animals were bred to C57BL/6J mice and then backcrossed to the same for 10 generations.

| Allele Name | transgene insertion 3, Brian Popko | ||
| Allele Type | Transgenic (Cre/Flp) | ||
| Common Name(s) | PLP/CreER; Tg(Plp-cre/ESR1)3.16Pop; Tg(Plp1-cre/ESR1)3.16Pop; | ||
| Site of Expression | tamoxifen inducible Cre recombinase protein fused to mutant form of the mouse estrogen receptor ligand binding domain; expression in oligodendrocytes and Schwann cells | ||
| 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. | |||

| Promoter | Plp1, proteolipid protein (myelin) 1, mouse, laboratory | ||
| Driver Note | Plp1 | ||
| Inducible Note | Induced by tamoxifen. | ||
| Molecular Note | The transgenic construct encodes a tamoxifen inducible fusion protein consisting of cre recombinase and a mutated human estrogen receptor ligand binding domain cloned next to a Plp promoter. The 2.5 kb Plp regulatory region includes 5' flanking DNA, exon1, and intron 1. Transgene expression was confirmed by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. The mouse Plp promoter was used to drive transgene expression in myelinating cells. [MGI Ref ID J:81627] | ||

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
