Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator Dr. Dan R. Littman, New York University Medical Center Description
These mice possess loxP sites on either side of exon 5 in the targeted gene. Mice that are homozygous for this floxed allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. When crossed with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, this strain is useful in eliminating tissue-specific expression of the gene.When bred to CD4-cre mice, homozyogous animals have reduced peripheral T cell numbers, abnormal CD4/CD8 expression, and altered response to antigen receptor stimulation. In addition, these mice show autoimmune colitis and asthma-like syndrome.
Development
A floxed neomycin resistance cassette was placed in intron 4 and a loxP site was placed in intron 5. The mutation was introduced using 129P2/OlaHsd-derived E14 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Cre expression in the embryonic stem cells excised the floxed neomycin cassette, leaving exon 5 flanked by loxP sites. This line was backcrossed to C57BL/6 for eight generations by the donating laboratory.
