description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mutation detailsExpression of the SV40 early region tumor antigen was driven in mouse prostate epithelium via a rat probasin promoter region fragment (-426/+28 bp). Sequencing identified greater than 20 copies of the Tg(TRAMP)8247Ng transgene (hemizygous) integrated on chromosome 16 (~18,993,000-19,272,880; mouse mm10). The region surrounding the integration site has duplicated. Currently, there are no genes annotated in this region. (J:65303, J:73560)

Notes
TRAMP stands for TRansgenic Adenocarcinoma Mouse Prostate. Lines 5666 and 8079 were also produced.

Transgenic mice on a C57BL6 background develop progressive forms of prostate cancer with distant site metastasis. Forms of disease range from mild intraepithelial hyperplasia to large multinodular malignant neoplasia. Tumors are detected in the prostate as early as 10 weeks of age. The tumors have elevated levels of nuclear TRP53 and decreased androgen receptor expression.
