Mating System Heterozygote x Inbred (Female x Male) 18-JUL-09 Species laboratory mouse Generation N4+ (17-JUL-09) Donating Investigator Elizabeth Simpson, University of British Columbia Description
These Ple151-EGFP;mEMS1615 mice have the Ple151-EGFP transgene targeted as a single copy "knockin" into the upstream region of hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase 1 (Hprt1) locus on the X chromosome. Heterozygous females and hemizygous males are viable and fertile, with the promoter/regulatory regions of the human oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 (OLIG1) gene directing expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP). These Ple151-EGFP;mEMS1615 mice may be useful in studying OLIG1-expressing cells in the brain and diseases affecting the brain.The donating investigator reports:
Positive EGFP immunoreactivity was detected across numerous brain regions. EGFP-positive cells show darker staining in the nucleus with a lighter staining halo of processes. In the brainstem, cortex and thalamus, numerous immunopositive profiles are detected while fewer profiles are seen in the olfactory bulb, striatum and cerebellum. In contrast to the predicted expression of OLIG1, the EGFP expression does not appear to be enriched in white matter tracts such as the corpus callosum.For more characterization information, see The Pleiades Promoter Project website (Ple151 Promoter (pEMS1172)).
These mice were created and deposited by The Pleiades Promoter Project (Centre for Molecular Medicine and Therapeutics, University of British Columbia); their goal is to generate 160 fully characterized, human DNA promoters of less than 4 kb (MiniPromoters) to drive gene expression in defined brain regions of therapeutic interest for studying disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (Lou Gehrig's disease), Multiple Sclerosis, Spinocerebellar Ataxia, Depression, Autism, and Cancer.
Development
The Ple151-EGFP transgene (pEMS1172) was designed with a Ple151 minipromoter (OLIG1-D; a combination of four regulatory sequences from the human oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 (OLIG1) gene) upstream of a minimal F5 mutant-frt site, an enhanced green fluorescent protein (with mutated TAA->TTA stop), a nuclear localization signal, a second minimal frt site, an SV40 early polyA signal, and a human HPRT complementary sequence (containing exon1, intron1, exon2, and part of intron2). This construct was targeted as a single copy knockin to the Hprt1b-m3 mutant locus on the X chromosome via electroporation into mEMS1204 embryonic stem cells (generated from F1 generation male pups born of C57BL/6-congenic females homozygous for a Hprt1b-m3 mutation [originally derived from 129P2/OlaHsd-derived E14TG2a embryonic stem cells] X 129S-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1Sor heterozygous males (see Stock No. 002171 and 003310, respectively)). Correctly targeted embryonic stem cells were microinjected into recipient mice cells. The resulting chimeric males (founder line mEMS1615) were bred to B6(Cg)-Tyrc-2J/J females (B6-albino; Stock No. 000058). Female progeny (obligate Hprt1Ple151-EGFP;mEMS1615 heterozygotes) also harboring a Tyr+ allele in combination with the Aw (agouti, white belly) and a (non-agouti/black) coat color alleles were identified and bred with C57BL/6J inbred males (Stock No. 000664). Next, hemizygous Hprt1Ple151-EGFP;mEMS1615 mice were bred with C57BL/6J inbred mice for at least three generations prior to arrival at The Jackson Laboratory. Upon arrival, these mice were bred with C57BL/6J inbred mice for at least one generation to establish the live colony.

| 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 |
The Ple151-EGFP transgene (pEMS1172) was designed with a Ple151 minipromoter (OLIG1-D; a combination of four regulatory sequences from the human oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 (OLIG1) gene) upstream of a minimal F5 mutant-frt site, an enhanced green fluorescent protein (with mutated TAA->TTA stop), a nuclear localization signal, a second minimal frt site, an SV40 early polyA signal, and a human HPRT complementary sequence (containing exon1, intron1, exon2, and part of intron2). This construct wastargeted as a single copy knockin to the Hprt1b-m3 mutant locus on the X chromosome. The promoter/regulatory regions of the human oligodendrocyte transcription factor 1 (OLIG1) gene direct expression of enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) to neural white matter glia and oligodendroglia. EGFP expression (via anti-GFP immunocytochemistry) is observed throughout cortical and subcortical regions of the brain. Within the cortex, individual cell bodies are distinctly labeled and "puffy" processes surround these cells. In contrast to the predicted expression of OLIG1, EGFP expression does not appear to be enriched in white matter tracts or in the corpus callosum. [MGI Ref ID J:144244] | ||

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 and Purchasing Information
