Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Manami Hara, University of Chicago Description
Mice hemizygous for this "MIP-GFP" transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP) under the control of the mouse insulin 1 promoter. Fluorescence is detected in tissues where insulin I is normally expressed; fluorescent protein expression in pancreatic beta-cells is evident from embryonic day (E)13.5 through adulthood. The fluorescence expression pattern is similar to the patterns seen in other stocks (see Stock No. 006784 and Stock No. 006866). MIP-GFP transgenic mice exhibit normal glucose tolerance and pancreatic insulin levels. The human growth hormone (hGH) sequence in the transgenic insert enhances expression of the EGFP, but hGH is not expressed. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of diabetes and pancreatic beta islet cell biology.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
A transgenic construct containing the coding region of the EGFP gene and a 2.1kb sequence of the human growth hormone to confer high expression of the EGFP under the control of the mouse insulin 1 gene promoter was injected into fertilized CD1 mouse eggs. Founder line 1 was subsequently established. The transgenic mice were then backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 10 generations (see SNp note below).A 32 SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) panel analysis, with 27 markers covering all 19 chromosomes and the X chromosome, as well as 5 markers that distinguish between the C57BL/6J and C57BL/6N substrains, was performed on the rederived living colony at The Jackson Laboratory Repository. While the 27 markers throughout the genome suggested a C57BL/6 genetic background, 2 of 5 markers that determine C57BL/6J from C57BL/6N were found to be segregating. These data suggest the mice sent to The Jackson Laboratory Repository were on a mixed C57BL/6J ; C57BL/6N genetic background.

| Expressed Gene | GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein, jellyfish | ||
| Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), derived from the jellyfish Aequorea victoria, is a versatile reporter molecule which has found use in many biological applications. In some constructs the original molecule has been modified in order to enhance its fluorescence intensity (EGFP, enhanced GFP). When utilized in a transgenic construct, tissue expressing sufficient amounts of GFP will fluoresce when exposed to a 488 nm light source. | |||

| Molecular Note | A transgenic construct containing the coding region of the EGFP gene and a 2.1kb sequence of the human growth hormone to confer high expression of the EGFP, under the control of the mouse insulin 1 gene promoter (a 8.5 kb region including -8.5 to +12 bp relative to the transcriptional start site) was injected into fertilized CD1 mouse eggs. Founder line 1 was subsequently established. Fluorescence is detected in tissues where insulin I is normally expressed; fluorescent protein expression in pancreatic beta-cells is evident from embryonic day (E)13.5 through adult.
