Strain Description
Olfactory sensory neurons that express the olfactory receptor Olfr17 also co-express the taulacZ fusion protein by virtue of IRES-mediated co-translation. These neurons can be revealed by histochemistry of beta-galactosidase enzymatic activity, or by immunofluorescence with anti-beta-galactosidase antibodies.

Strain Development
The homologous recombination that inserted the IRES-taulacZ-LTNL cassette downstream of the endogenous coding sequence was done in D3 ES cells, which were derived from 129S2/SvPas. The loxP-flanked neo cassette was then removed by transient transfection of a plasmid expressing cre recombinase, prior to injection of these ES cells into blastocysts. Resulting mice were bred to C57BL/6 and intercrossed.

Gene & Allele Details

Allele Symbol Olfr17tm1Mom
Allele Name targeted mutation 1, Peter Mombaerts
Common Name(s) OR-lacZ; P2*-LacZ; P2-IRES-taulacZ;
Mutation Made By Peter Mombaerts,   Max Planck Institute of Biophysics
Strain of Origin129P2/OlaHsd
ES Cell Line NameE14
ES Cell Line Strain129P2/OlaHsd
Gene Symbol and Name Olfr17, olfactory receptor 17
Chromosome 7
Gene Common Name(s) GA_x6K02T2PBJ9-9470146-9471093; JCG5; MOR263-5; OR10A4P; P2; ratchr1-164484422-164485369_ORF;
Molecular Note Insertion of an IRES-tau-lacZ-loxP-tk-neo-loxP expression cassette placed the inserted sequences under control of the endogenous regulatory sequences. Transient expression of Cre recombinase in C57BL/6 blastocysts excised the thymidine kinase and neomycin sequences. This allele expresses a bicistronic mRNA encoding the receptor and a bovine tau-beta-galactosidase fusion protein. [MGI Ref ID J:36595] [MGI Ref ID J:99181]

Supply Details

Standard SupplyRepository-Live. A collection of over 1000 strains maintained as live colonies. Individual colonies are sized to meet current customer demand. Delivery for orders of 10 mice or less ranges on average from one to eight weeks; mice are generally shipped between four to six weeks of age with a maximum shipping age of ~nine weeks. Colony sizes do not generally support stringent age specifications for large volumes of mice; however custom orders and larger quantities of mice are easily arranged. Estimated ship dates for all orders provided within 48 hours of order placement.
Supply Notes Usually shipped between four and eight weeks of age.
This strain is included in the Induced Mutant Resource Colony collection.

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.
