| These mice contain (STOP-hPLAP): the human alkaline phosphatase, placental (Regan isozyme), ALPP, gene under the control of the CAG (chicken beta actin promoter/enhancer and cytomegalovirus immediate-early enhancer) promoter, inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. Expression of the ALPP gene is blocked by a loxP-flanked STOP fragment placed between the ALPP sequence and the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. This strain serves as a reporter strain, with successful Cre-mediated excision being indicated by ALPP expression in cre-expressing tissues. | |||||||||||||||

These mice contain "STOP-hPLAP", the human alkaline phosphatase, placental (Regan isozyme), ALPP, gene under the control of the CAG (chicken beta actin promoter/enhancer and cytomegalovirus immediate-early enhancer) promoter, inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. Expression of the ALPP gene is blocked by a loxP-flanked STOP fragment placed between the ALPP sequence and the Gt(ROSA)26Sor promoter. In the absence of Cre recombinase, no ALPP staining is detected in all tissues examined so far including the central and peripheral nervous system, skin, muscle, lung and heart. This strain serves as a reporter strain, with successful Cre-mediated excision being indicated by ALPP expression in cre-expressing tissues. Mice that are homozygous for the targeted mutation are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies of cell lineage tracing, and is particularly useful for labeling and tracing the morphology of neurons because ALPP is a GPI-anchored membrane protein that is transported and expressed on the membrane of axons and dendrites of neurons.Development
A targeting vector containing the human ALPP alkaline phosphatase, placental (Regan isozyme) gene driven by the CAG (chicken beta actin promoter/enhancer and cytomegalovirus immediate-early enhancer) promoter, a STOP fragment, and polyadenlyation signal sequence was inserted into the Gt(ROSA)26Sor locus. The construct was electroporated into 129P2/OlaHsd derived embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into recipient blastocysts. The resulting chimeric animals were crossed to C57BL/6 mice, and then backcrossed to C57BL/6 for one generation before being made homozygous. Upon arrival at The Jackson Laboratory the mice were crossed with C57BL/6J once to establish the colony.

| Molecular Note | The human gene driven by the CAG promoter was cloned downstream of a floxed neo cassette and 4 polyadenylation sequences. Expression of the human gene can only be achieved by cre-mediated removal of the floxed neo STOP cassette. [MGI Ref ID J:143278] [MGI Ref ID J:143859] | ||

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.
