Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) 16-SEP-09 Species laboratory mouse Generation F?+3 (18-NOV-09) Donating Investigator Darren Moore, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne Donating Investigator Ted Dawson, Johns Hopkins Univ School of Medicine Description
Homozygous ROSA26-Syn-E46K mice are viable and fertile, with the E46K missense mutant form of human alpha-synuclein (human E46K α-Syn or SYNE46K; associated with familial Parkinson's disease, dementia, and visual hallucinations) inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor (ROSA26) locus. Widespread expression of human E46K α-Syn is blocked by an upstream loxP-flanked STOP sequence (in the absence of Cre recombinase, no human E46K α-Syn protein is observed in brain regions). When bred to cre expressing mice, the STOP sequence is deleted in the tissues of offspring where Cre recombinase is present; resulting in human E46K α-Syn expression. In particular, Stock No. 008601 B6.Cg-Tg(Th-cre)1Tmd/J may be useful for this application. These ROSA26-Syn-E46K mice allow inducible expression of a human mutation associated with familial Parkinson's disease, dementia, and visual hallucinations and may be useful for studying the progressive dopaminergic neurodegeneration of Parkinson's disease and other synucleinopathies, Lewy bodies, and synaptic plasticity.Development
A targeting vector was designed with an SV40 splice acceptor, a loxP-flanked STOP cassette (PGK-neo and triple SV40 transcriptional termination sequence), a human alpha-synuclein cDNA bearing a familial Parkinson's disease-linked E46K missense mutation (SYNE46K), and a bovine polyadenylation signal. This construct was inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus via electroporation into into 129/SvJ-derived embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient blastocysts and chimeric mice were bred with C57BL/6J mice to generate the mutant colony. ROSA26-Syn-E46K mice were bred to C57BL/6 for 2-3 generations and then bred together to make homozygous prior to arrival at The Jackson Laboratory. Upon arrival, mutant mice were bred with C57BL/6J inbred mice (Stock No. 000664) for at least one generation to establish the colony.

| 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 approximately 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 two business days following order placement. |
