| These Itgax-cre transgenic mice express Cre recombinase the control of the mouse integrin alpha X (or Cd11c) promoter. Cre recombinase expression is detected in CD8-, CD8+ dendritic cells, tissue derived dendritic cells from lymph nodes, lung and epidermis and plasmacytoid dendritic cells. This strain represents an effective tool for generating tissue specific-targeted mutants that would be useful to study dendritic cell homeostasis and function. | |||||||||||||||||||

Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Boris Reizis, Columbia University Medical Center Description
Mice hemizygous for the Cd11c-cre transgene are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. These transgenic mice express Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse integrin alpha X (Cd11c) promoter. Cre-mediated recombination is detected in more than 95% of conventional CD11chigh dendritic cells both from lymphoid organs and from non-lymphoid tissues such as lung and epidermis, and in 50-80% of plasmacytoid dendritic cells. The dendritic cell compartment of transgenic mice is normal. Relatively low amounts of recombination are detected in lymphocytes (<10%), NK cells (12%), and myeloid cells (<1%). No increase of recombination frequency was observed in CD11clow- activated T cells. These Cd11c-cre transgenic mice (as well as CD11c-Cre-GFP transgenic mice (see Stock No. 007567)) are an effective tool for generating tissue-specific targeted mutants for studying dendritic cell homeostasis and function.Development
The expression cassette encoding Cre recombinase and a polyA signal sequence was introduced into the first exon of the mouse integrin alpha X (Cd11c) gene (Itgax), within the bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone RP24-361C4. The resulting ~160 Kb transgenic construct was introduced into B6CBAF1/J donor eggs. Founder line 1-1 was consequently established. The mice were crossed to 129S6/SvEvTac for several generations and then backcrossed to C57BL/6 for more than 12 generations prior to arriving at The Jackson Laboratory.SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) analysis performed by The Jackson Laboratory revealed that the Donating Investigator used C57BL/6N (2 of 5 markers segregating) in the development of the strain. Upon arrival at The Jackson Laboratory, the mice were crossed to C57BL/6J at least once to establish the colony.

| Allele Type | Transgenic (Cre/Flp) | ||
| Common Name(s) | Cd11c-cre; | ||
| Mutation Made By | Boris Reizis, Columbia University Medical Center | ||
| Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x CBA)F1 | ||
| Site of Expression | most conventional CD11chigh dendritic cells and many plasmacytoid dendritic cells; low expression in lymphocytes, NK cells, and myeloid cells | ||
| Expressed Gene | cre, cre recombinase, bacteriophage P1 | ||
| Cre recombinase is an enzyme derived from the bacteriophage P1 that specifically recognizes loxP sites. Cre has been shown to effectively mediate the excision of DNA located between loxP sites. After the excision event, the DNA ends recombine leaving a single loxP site in place of the intervening sequence. | |||
| Promoter | Itgax, integrin alpha X, mouse, laboratory | ||
| Driver Note | Itgax | ||
| Molecular Note | A transgenic construct containing sequence encoding cre recombinase under the control of the mouse integrin alpha X (Cd11c) promoter, and a bovine growth hormone poly A signal sequence, was introduced into B6CBAF1/J donor eggs. BAC clone RP24-361C4 (BACPAC Resources) containing the Itgax (Cd11c) gene but lacking the 5' end of the adjacent Itgam gene, was modified by ET recombination to generated the transgene construct. Founder line 1-1 was consequently established. Cre recombinase expression is detected in CD8-, CD8+ dendritic cells, tissue derived dendritic cells from lymph nodes, lung and epidermis and plasmacytoid dendritic cells. Background recombination is detected in lymphocytes (<10%) and myeloid cells (<1%). [MGI Ref ID J:125869] | ||

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
