Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Mutant Stock Additional information on JAX® GEMM® Strains. Type JAX® GEMM® Strain - Targeted Mutation Mating System +/+ sibling x Heterozygote (Female x Male) Species laboratory mouse Donating Investigator Philippe Soriano, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center Generation ?+F1 (25-APR-08) Strain Description
These mice express the histone 2B and Green fluorescent protein, H2BGFP, fusion gene under the control of the endogenous Efnb2 promoter. Homozygotes die at E10.5 due to cardiovascular defects. Homozygous embryos exhibit defects in cardiovascular and somite development, cranial and trunk neural crest cell populations. These mutant mice may be useful in studies of embryonic development.Strain Development
A targeting vector containing the histone 2B and Green Fluorescent Protein, H2BGFP, fusion gene was used to disrupt exon 1 and the start codon of the Efnb2 gene. The construct was electroporated into 129S4/SvJaeSor-derived AK7 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were crossed to C57BL/6J mice.

| Standard Supply | Repository-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. |
