Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, Hypomorph, Reporter)
• Mutation: Insertion Vector: L1L2_Bact_P
• Mutation details: The L1L2_Bact_P cassette was inserted at position 120792385 of Chromosome 5 upstream of the critical exon(s) (Build GRCm39). The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by a neomycin resistance gene under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exon(s) at position 120793472. The critical exon(s) is/are thus flanked by loxP sites. A "conditional ready" (floxed) allele can be created by flp recombinase expression in mice carrying this allele. Subsequent cre expression results in a knockout mouse. If cre expression occurs without flp expression, a reporter knockout mouse will be created.

Notes

Cell lines EPD0132_2_A03 and EPD0132_2_H03 were successfully used to make chimeric mice. Germline transmission was accomplished. J:265032
Special note about these mutant cell lines: The mutation generated in ES cell line EPD0132_2_A03 or EPD0132_2_H03 results in a hypomorphic allele. qRT-PCR analysis and Western blot analysis revealed an 80% reduction on the mRNA and protein level, respectively, in homozygous mutant mice. J:265032
