Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator John E Coligan, NIAID/NIH Description
LAIR1, an inhibitory receptor protein with a high affinity for collagen, is expressed on most cells of the immune system and is associated with inhibition of the cytotoxic activity of NK and CD8+ T cells, BCR-induced B cell activation and proliferation, and CD3 signaling and cytokine production by T cells. These mutant mice possess loxP sites flanking exons 4 to 8 of the (Lair1) gene. Mice that are homozygous for this allele are viable, fertile, and normal in size. When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, resulting offspring will have exons 4-8 deleted in the cre-expressing tissues. This strain may be useful for studying immune cell regulation.Development
A targeting vector was designed to insert a loxP site upstream of exon 4 followed by a frt-flanked neomycin resistance (neo) cassette and a second loxP site downstream of exon 8 of the Lair1 gene. Exons 4-8 contain two immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibition motifs (ITIM)that interact with the tyrosine phosphatases SHP1, SHP2 and SRC kinase. This construct was electroporated into C57BL/6-derived Bruce4 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts and resulting chimeric mice were bred to C57BL/6 mice.

Cryopreserved Mice - Ready for Recovery
Animals Provided
Price (US dollars $) Cryorecovery* $1980.00 At least two mice that carry the mutation (if it is a mutant strain) will be provided. Their genotypes may not reflect those discussed in the strain description. Please inquire for possible genotypes and see additional details below.
Standard Supply
Cryopreserved. Ready for recovery. Please refer to pricing and supply notes on the strain data sheet for further information.
Supply Notes
- Cryorecovery - Standard.
Progeny testing is not required.
The average number of mice provided from recovery of our cryopreserved strains is 10. The total number of animals provided, their gender and genotype will vary. We will fulfill your order by providing at least two pair of mice, at least one animal of each pair carrying the mutation of interest. Please inquire if larger numbers of animals with specific genotype and genders are needed. Animals typically ship between 11 and 14 weeks from the date of your order. If a second cryorecovery is needed in order to provide the minimum number of animals, animals will ship within 25 weeks. IMPORTANT NOTE: The genotypes of animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation, or that discussed in the strain description. Please inquire about possible genotypes which will be recovered for this specific strain. The Jackson Laboratory cannot guarantee the reproductive success of mice shipped to your facility. If the mice are lost after the first three days (post-arrival) or do not produce progeny at your facility, a new order and fee will be necessary.Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice.
Mice recovered can be used to establish a dedicated colony to contractually supply you mice according to your requirements. Price by quotation. For more information on Dedicated Supply, please contact JAX® Services, Tel: 1-800-422-6423 (from U.S.A., Canada or Puerto Rico only) or 1-207-288-5845 (from any location).
