Allelic
Composition		 H2-Obvic1/H2-Obvic1

Background		 I/LnJ

Mouse lines carrying:
H2-Obvic1 mutation (1 available); any H2-Ob mutation (24 available)
♀ phenotype observed in females
♂ phenotype observed in males
N normal phenotype
immune system
decreased susceptibility to Retroviridae infection ( J:163153 )
• although MMTV and MuLV infection can occur, MMTV transmission and mammary tumor induction are blocked and MuLV transmission and virally induced disease are blocked, and these responses are mediated by anti-virion antibodies, require gamma interferon, cytotoxic immune responses, but not interleukin 12

neoplasm
decreased incidence of induced tumors ( J:60602 , J:81554 )
• mammary glands become infected with MMTV but at 1.5 years zero of 24 infected females develop tumors (J:81554)
