The A30P mutation in this transgenic strain is associated with the development of familial Parkinson's disease. The onset of hind limb mobility problems occurs around 12 months of age (sometimes earlier), induced by a loss of motor neurons and associated with the formation of insoluble alpha synuclein aggregates. This strain may be useful in studies of Parkinson's disease.

Description
The A30P mutation in this transgenic strain is associated with the development of familial Parkinson's disease. The onset of hind limb mobility problems occurs around 12 months of age (sometimes earlier), induced by a loss of motor neurons and associated with the formation of insoluble alpha synuclein aggregates. This strain may be useful in studies of Parkinson's disease. Hemizygous mice are viable and fertile.

Development
This transgenic strain carries the human A30P mutant SNCA (synuclein, alpha) gene under the control of a human THY1 (thymus cell antigen 1, theta) promoter. The transgenic vector was injected into B6SJLF1/J embryos, but this line has been backcrossed approximately 10 times to C57BL/6. This is line TS2.

Please note: Estimated available for sale dates are provided to keep customers better informed on strains under development. Please note that our Colony Managers routinely monitor the target date and edit it based on breeding performance and other factors. The length of time it takes to make a new strain available for sale depends on genotype, age, number of animals sent by the Donating Investigator, breeding performance, additional strain development (backcrossing, making homozygous), and anticipated demand for the strain/interest registered.

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.
