Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator George Eisenbarth, U of Colorado Appearance
pink-eyed, albino
Related Genotype: A/A Tyrc/TyrcDescription
This transgenic strain carries a rearranged Tcr alpha gene from the pathogenic anti-insulin CD4+ T-cell clone BDC12-4.1. Transgenic mice are viable and fertile. When hemizygotes are crossed with Stock No. 006304 NOD.FVB-Tg(TcrbBDC12-4.1)82Gse/GseJ, expression of the BDC12-4.1 T-cell receptor is confirmed by FACS analysis of PBMCs from the double transgenic mice. Double transgenic mice develop insulitis, but spontaneous diabetes does not develop, even in older animals (60 weeks of age), nor can insulin autoantibodies be detected in any age group. Splenocytes from double transgenic mice stimulated with B9-23 peptide produce IFN-gamma, whereas no response is observed in controls. When the congenic NOD double transgenic is combined with a homozygous Rag1tm1Mom mutation (such as in Stock No. 003729), recombination of the endogenous TCR and immunoglobulin genes is prevented. As a result, mature T cells in these mice express only the BDC12-4.1 TCR. In addition, approximately 50% of the double transgenic, Rag1tm1Mom homozygote mice develop diabetes by 30 weeks of age. Histopathology indicates severe insulitis and/or destruction of all insulin-producing cells (Jasinski et al 2006). This Tcr alpha transgenic strain when combined with the Tcr beta strain (Stock No. 006304) is useful for further studying the pathogenesis of insulin autoimmunity and diabetes.In an attempt to offer alleles on well-characterized or multiple genetic backgrounds, alleles are frequently moved to a genetic background different from that on which an allele was first characterized. It should be noted that the phenotype could vary from that originally described. We will modify the strain description if necessary as published results become available.
Development
BDC12-4.1 is a pathogenic CD4+ T cell clone derived from NOD pancreatic islets. The TCR specifically recognizes a mouse insulin B chain peptide (amino acids 9-23). The TCR alpha chain from the BDC12-4.1 was subcloned into a TCR cassette and microinjected into FVB embryos. Progeny from Founder Line 10 were backcrossed to NOD for 9 generations. In 2006, The Jackson Laboratory received hemizygous mice at generation N9 and backcrossed them once to NOD/LtJ prior to sibling mating.

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.

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
