Detailed Description

I/LnJ mice were originally derived by Dr. LC Strong in 1926 from an unpedigreed stock of mice. A high proportion of mice from this strain lack a corpus callosum. This absence is associated with slow growth of the medial septum subadjacent to the cavum septi. I/LnJ mice are resistant to MMTV induced mammary tumor development and generate neutralizing antibodies to MMTV and MuLv virions that effectively block viral transmission. This phenotype was traced to the I/LnJ loss-of-function allele, vic1, in H2-Ob (Denzin et al., 2017). Due to a frameshift mutation in alpha 1 phosphorylase kinase these mice have increased glycogen content in resting skeletal muscle. The reproductive performance of I/LnJ mice is very poor. Further analysis indicates that oocytes from I/LnJ mice display retarded kinetics of meiotic maturation and a high frequency of metaphase I arrest. Some oocytes fail to resume meiosis. Oocytes have many very small centrosomes with an absence of microtubules. I/LnJ mice, in addition to carrying several other coat color alleles, are homozygous for the piebald mutation (Ednrb^s). Thus, these mice show irregular white spotting, the amount of which is greatly influenced by minor modifying genes. They also have dark eyes. The white areas of the coat are completely lacking in neural crest-derived melanocytes, and there is a reduction in the number of melanocytes in the choroid layer of the eye. Although kinked tail is not a phenotype noted at birth, approximately 10% of pups at wean age and 20% of breeders have a single kink in the tail. This phenotype was recorded in 2006, and whether this strain characteristic was part of the original phenotype of this inbred strain or arose subsequent to inbreeding is not known.

Hc⁰

Allele Symbol: Hc⁰

Allele Name	deficient
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	deficient; Hc⁰
Gene Symbol and Name	Hc, hemolytic complement
Gene Synonym(s)	He; CPAMD4; ECLZB; C5b; He; C5; C5a; C5D; C5; Hfib2; hepatic fibrogenesis 2; Hfib2
Strain of Origin	multiple strains
Chromosome	2
General Note	This is an allele characteristic of various inbred mouse strains including the following: A/HeJ, A/J, AKR/J, DBA/2J, NZB/B1NJ, SWR/J, B10.D2/oSnJ Hc was identified as a candidate gene for Abhr2 in a microarray analysis of lung mRNA from A/J, C3H/HeJ, and (A/J x C3H/HeJ)F1 x A/J backcross animals. Hc genotype shows statistically significant correlation to allergen-induced bronchial hyperresponsive phenotype. The A/J allele contains a 2 bp deletion resulting in deficient Hc mRNA and protein production and is associated with susceptibility to allergen-induced bronchial hyperresponsiveness. (J:108211)
Molecular Note	A 2 base "TA" deletion at positions 62 and 63 of an 83 base pair exon near the 5' end of the gene is found in the following mouse strains: A/HeJ, A/J, AKR/J, DBA/2J, I/LnJ, KK/HlJ, MOLF/EiJ, NZB/B1NJ, RF/J, ST/bJ SWR/J, B10.D2/oSnJ. The consequence of this deletion is the creation of a stop codon starting four bases after the deletion. A truncated product of 216 amino acids is predicted as a result although contradictory reports exist that a larger pro-C5 protein may be synthesized. Nevertheless, macrophages from mouse strains carrying this allele do not secrete complement 5.

Mx1^s2

Allele Symbol: Mx1^s2

Allele Name	myxovirus susceptibility 2
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	Mx1^s2; myxovirus susceptibility 2
Gene Symbol and Name	Mx1, MX dynamin-like GTPase 1
Gene Synonym(s)	Mx; Mx-1; Mx; Mx-1; AI893580; myxovirus (influenza) resistance 1 polypeptide; expressed sequence AI893580; IFI-78K; MxA; MX; IFI78; MXB
Strain of Origin	multiple strains
Chromosome	16
General Note	The Mx genes determine resistance to the lethal effects of various myxoviruses including neurotropic avian influenza A virus injected intracerebrally, pneumotropic strains injected intranasally, and a hepatotropic strain injected intraperitoneally (J:5645, J:13136). Resistance is not dependent on presence of the thymus and is not abolished by immunosuppression or by inhibitors of macrophage function (J:5735, J:5478, J:5645). Resistance is specific for the orthomyxoviruses (J:6265). It is dependent on the presence of interferon-alpha and -beta but not -gamma (J:7365). The resistance allele at the Mx1 locus, under induction by alpha/beta interferon, produces the 75 kDa protein MX-1, which confers resistance to the influenza virus, in the nuclei of cells carrying the allele. Susceptibility alleles do not produce the protein (J:8273). The protein is located in the nucleus (J:7703) and produces its antiviral effect by preventing synthesis of viral mRNA in the nucleus (J:7992). Nuclear localization is necessary for anti-influenza virus activity (J:1417), but mutations induced in Mx1 showed that nuclear position was not sufficient for the effect; mutations in several domains can cause its loss (J:11840). The MX-1 protein is a GTPase containing a GTP binding domain (J:1417) and this binding core is also necessary (J:21243). Resistance is expressed by macrophages and other cells in vitro (J:6649, J:5940) but could not be transferred to susceptible animals by transfer of macrophages from resistant mice (J:6149). Resistance to infection with two tick-borne viruses, Thogoto virus (J:8273) and Dhori virus (J:27760), is also conferred by Mx1^r. The Mx1^r allele occurs only in strains A2G, SL/NiA, and T9, the latter being a strain derived from an influenza-resistant wild stock, and CAST/Ei, derived from Mus musculus castaneus. Most inbred strains, including C57BL/6J, C3H/HeJ, and BALB/cJ, carry an influenza susceptible Mx1^s1 allele which produces mRNA lacking exons 9, 10, and 11 of the Mx1^r allele. This large deletion apparently renders the protein incapable of providing resistance to influenza. The CBA/J, CE/J, I/LnJ, and PERA/Ei strains, also susceptible to the virus, have another form of the Mx1^s2 allele in which there is a nonsense mutation (J:9452). Interferon is induced by viral infection and in turn induces the Mx protein (J:7703). Although some interferon-induced genes respond directly to virus invasion as well as indirectly through induction by virus-induced interferon, this primary response is very weak for the MX-1 protein in response to either influenza or Newcastle disease viruses (J:1892).
Molecular Note	CBA/J, CE/J, I/LnJ and PERA/Ei strains have a nonsense mutation that results in a null allele and susceptibility to myxoviruses.

Ahr^d

Allele Symbol: Ahr^d

Allele Name	d variant
Allele Type	Not Applicable
Allele Synonym(s)	Ahr^d; d variant
Gene Symbol and Name	Ahr, aryl-hydrocarbon receptor
Gene Synonym(s)	bHLHe76; aromatic hydrocarbon responsiveness; aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase; Ahh; dioxin receptor; In; Ah; Ahre; inflammatory reactivity; RP85
Strain of Origin	Not Applicable
Chromosome	12
General Note	Strain of origin - this allele was found in DBA/2J, AKR/J, 129, SWR, RF, NZB strains
Molecular Note	This allele encodes a 104 kDa receptor that is stabilized by molybdate and has an affinity for ligand 10-100 fold lower than that of the receptor produced by the C57BL/6J allele. PCR sequencing of cDNA revealed ten nucleotide differences between the coding sequences of the DBA/2J and C57BL/6J receptors. Five of the ten differences would cause amino acid changes. One of these, an apparent T to C transition replaces the opal termination codon in the C57BL/6J allele with an arginine codon in the DBA/2J allele. This change would extend translation of the DBA/2J mRNA by 43 amino acids, accounting for the larger size of the peptide produced by this allele (104 kDa vs 95 kDa for the C57BL/6J allele). A second T to C transition changes a leucine codon in the C57BL/6J allele to a proline codon in the DBA/2J allele, and would likely change secondary structure of the peptide and thus ligand affinity.

Ednrb^s

Allele Symbol: Ednrb^s

Allele Name	piebald
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	piebald; Ednrb^s
Gene Symbol and Name	Ednrb, endothelin receptor type B
Gene Synonym(s)	AU022549; HSCR2; WS4A; s; expressed sequence AU022549; HSCR; ETR-b; ABCDS; Sox10m1; ET-B; ET-BR; ETBR; ETRB; ETB; piebald; Ednra; ETB1; ETb; Etb
Strain of Origin	old mutant of the mouse fancy
Chromosome	14
General Note	Also called piebald spotting. This is a very old mutation of the mouse fancy, and was described in the scientific literature as early as 1920 (J23183). Some piebalds in existing stocks may be of independent origin.
Molecular Note	This mutation is allelic to a targeted mutation for this gene. Homozygous mice produce approximately 25% of the normal levels of transcript from this allele. RT-PCR analysis demonstrated that no alterations in the coding sequence would result in any alteration of the amino acid sequence. A 5.5 kb retrotransposon-like element is found in intron 1. About 75% of the mRNA produced is an aberrant 6.5 kb form lacking exons 2-6 but containing exon 1. The remaining 25% of the mRNA formed is of normal, 4.4 kb, size.

Gene Synonym(s)	COX7RP; SIG-81; SIG81; silica-induced gene 81; Silg81; COX7AR; EB1
Strain of Origin	multiple strains
Chromosome	17
General Note	Querying the sequences of the Sanger Mouse Genomes Project reveals that the short allele with its 6 bp deletion exists in C57BL/6J, C57BL/10J, C57BL/6NJ, C58/J, BALB/cJ, C3H/HeH, 129S5/SvEvBrd, NZW/LacZ, and SEA/GnJ, but the long allele lacking the deletion exists in 129S1/SvImJ, A/J, AKR/J, BTBR T⁺ Itpr3^tf/J, BUB/BnJ, C3H/HeJ, C57BR/cdJ, C57L/J, CAST/EiJ, CBA/J, DBA/1J, DBA/2J, FVB/NJ, I/LnJ, KK/HiJ, LEWES/EiJ, LP/J, MOLF/EiJ, NOD/ShiLtJ, NZB/BlNJ, NZO/HlLtJ, PWK/PhJ, RF/J, SPRET/EiJ, ST/bJ, WSB/EiJ, ZALENDE/EiJ.

Gene Symbol and Name	Myo5a, myosin VA
Gene Synonym(s)	dilute; Myo5; MVa; MYH12; MYO5; flail; nmf244; 9630007J19Rik; myosin V; GS1; RIKEN cDNA 9630007J19 gene; AI661011; flailer; 9630007J19Rik; flail; flr; MyoVA; MYR12; AI413174; expressed sequence AI661011; expressed sequence AI413174; Dbv; Dbv; d; Dop; Myh12; Myo5
Strain of Origin	old mutant of the mouse fancy
Chromosome	9
Molecular Note	This mutation is the result of the integration of ecotropic murine leukemia virus Emv-3 into a noncoding region of the Myo5a^d gene. Reversions of Myo5a^d to wild-type are caused by excision of the virus leaving exactly one long terminal repeat in place.

Phka1^I/FnLn

Allele Symbol: Phka1^I/FnLn

Allele Name	I/FnLn
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	I/FnLn; Phka1^I/FnLn
Gene Symbol and Name	Phka1, phosphorylase kinase alpha 1
Gene Synonym(s)	9830108K24Rik; Phka; 9830108K24Rik; RIKEN cDNA 9830108K24 gene; PHKA; Pcyt1b; phosphorylase kinase alpha; Phka
Strain of Origin	I/FnLn
Chromosome	X
Molecular Note	An insertion of a T residue after codon 429 results in a frameshift and premature termination 17 codons downstream which is only approximately one third of the normal protein length. Northern blot analysis reveals a great reduction of this transcript in muscle extracts.

	Inbred, 1 pair minimum will be supplied

We will fulfill your order by providing at least two carriers for each strain ordered. The total number, sex, and genotypes provided will vary, although typically 8 or more animals are provided. Please check genotypes which will be recovered. While the genotypes of all animals produced will be communicated to you prior to scheduling shipment, the genotypes of animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme and genotypes described in the strain description. Animals are typically ready to ship in 11-14 weeks. If a second recovery is required to produce the minimum number of animals, then delivery time would increase to approximately 25 weeks. If we fail to produce animals of the correct genotype, you will not be charged. We cannot guarantee the reproductive success of mice shipped to your facility. If the mice are lost after the first three days (post-arrival) or do not produce progeny at your facility, a new order and fee will be necessary.

Cryorecovery to establish a Dedicated Supply for greater quantities of mice. Mice recovered can be used to establish a dedicated colony to contractually supply you mice according to your requirements. Price by quotation.

The Jackson Laboratory's Genotype Promise

The Jackson Laboratory has rigorous genetic quality control and mutant gene genotyping programs to ensure the genetic background of JAX® Mice strains as well as the genotypes of strains with identified molecular mutations. JAX® Mice strains are only made available to researchers after meeting our standards. However, the phenotype of each strain may not be fully characterized and/or captured in the strain data sheets. Therefore, we cannot guarantee a strain's phenotype will meet all expectations. To ensure that JAX® Mice will meet the needs of individual research projects or when requesting a strain that is new to your research, we suggest ordering and performing tests on a small number of mice to determine suitability for your particular project.
