Transgene
description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(CD2-Il5)#Ldt expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation details10 kb of genomic mouse Il5 sequences under the control of the dominant control region (DCR) from human CD2 was used for the transgene. This region drives thymocyte and T-cell specific expression. Northern blot analysis confirmed transgene expression in the thymus, Peyer's patches and subcutaneous lymph nodes of transgenic animals. Founders Tg5C1 and Tg5C2 carry 8 and 49 copies of the transgene, respectively, and express 65X and 265X the amount of blood eosinophils of nontransgenic littermates, respectively. The symbol # is used when no line is specified or both lines are pooled. (J:76902)
