Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Joseph L Kissil, Wistar Institute Description
Mice homozygous for this 4.1B/Dal-1 targeted allele are viable, fertile, and age normally with no spontaneous tumor formation. Lung, brain, breast, and prostate tissues from homozygotes show no protein expression from the mutant locus. Although 4.1B-deficient females do not form tumors of the mammary gland, a significant increase in mammary epithelial cell proliferation during pregnancy is observed. When these 4.1B-deficient mice are bred with TRAMP transgenic mice (see Sock No. 003135), the resulting double mutant offspring exhibit increased susceptibility for developing aggressive prostate carcinomas and enhanced tumor malignancy associated with reduced apoptosis. Because 4.1B expression is frequently downregulated in human clinical prostate cancer (and a spectrum of other tumor types), these 4.1B mutant mice may be useful in studying the role of 4.1B as a negative regulator of cancer progression to metastatic disease.Development
A targeting vector was designed to replace the 3' region of exon 3 (which is the second coding exon of the 4.1B locus and contains the initiating codon of the Dal-1 isoform) of the targeted gene with a neomycin selection cassette. The construct was electroporated into the 129S4/SvJae-derived J1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts. The resulting mutant mice were maintained on a mixed ("129/SvJae and C57BL/6 and possibly other") genetic background prior to arrival at The Jackson Laboratory. Upon arrival, mice were bred to C57BL/6J for at least one generation to establish the colony.
