Transgene
origin
Strain of Origin:  CBA x C57BL/6
Transgene
description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Humanized sequence, Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(FXN)YG22Pook expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe transgenic construct consists of a 370kb YAC insert that includes the entire human FXN gene with GAA triplet repeat sequences, and was injected into fertilized CBA X C57BL/6 hybrid fertilized oocytes. Founder line YG22 was generated, showing a reduced transmission rate of 21%, indicating germ-line mosaicism of the transgene, compared to 52% transmission to offspring for founder line YG8. One copy of the FXN gene was detected, and contains a single 190 GAA repeat sequence. (J:91581)

Notes
Line YG22 exhibits slightly greater age-related repeat instability than line YG8, with a bias toward repeat expansion.
