Overview

Also Known As: Swiss Jim Lambert, SJL

SJL mice display a very high incidence of reticulum cell sarcomas resembling Hodgkin's disease by approximately one year of age. This strain is also characterized by extreme aggression in males and its susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) for multiple sclerosis research. SJL/J mice develop a spontaneous myopathy resulting from a splice-site mutation in the Dysferlin gene resulting in decreased levels of dysferlin protein in SJL/J mice and making this strain a good model for limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2B. SJL mice, fed an atherogenic diet (1.25% cholesterol, 0.5% cholic acid and 15% fat), fail to develop atherosclerotic aortic lesions in contrast to several highly susceptible strains of mice. SJL are immunocompetent but have elevated levels of circulating T cells.

Detailed Description

SJL mice display a very high incidence of reticulum cell sarcomas resembling Hodgkin's disease by approximately one year of age. Sarcomas first appear in the Peyer's patches and mesenteric lymph nodes and later in the spleen, liver, thymus and other lymph nodes. Most of the tumors are mixed-cell types classified as type B reticulum cell neoplasms, but a few are type A histiocytomas. This strain is also characterized by extreme aggression in males and its susceptibility to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) for multiple sclerosis research. SJL/J mice develop a spontaneous myopathy resulting from a splice-site mutation in the Dysferlin gene. This Dysf^im allele has been shown to result in decreased levels of dysferlin protein in SJL/J mice and makes this strain a good model for limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2B. This spontaneous myopathy is characterized by a progressive loss of muscle mass and strength corresponding with an increase in muscle pathology including muscle fibers with central nuclei, size variation, splitting, inflammatory infiltrate, necrosis, and eventual replacement of muscle fiber with fat. While muscle weakness can be detected as early as three weeks of age the greatest pathology occurs after six months of age. SJL/J mice have also been shown to have an increased rate of muscle regeneration after injury when compared to BALB/c mice. Due to a mutation in Ceacam1 SJL/J mice are resistant to infection by certain strains of mouse hepatitis virus MHV-4.

SJL mice, fed an atherogenic diet (1.25% cholesterol, 0.5% cholic acid and 15% fat), fail to develop atherosclerotic aortic lesions in contrast to several highly susceptible strains of mice (e.g. C57BL/6J, Stock No. 000664; C57L/J, Stock No. 000668, C57BR/cdJ, Stock No. 000667, and SM/J, Stock No. 000687). SJL/J are also useful as a control strain for studying immune defects in NOD/ShiLtJ mice (Stock No. 001976), a model for type 1 diabetes (IDDM). Both NOD and SJL/J are derived from Swiss mice; SJL are immunocompetent but have elevated levels of circulating T cells.

In 2019, researchers at The Jackson Laboratory discovered this inbred strain has a nonsense mutation in Trem2 affecting codon 148 (dbSNP ID: rs107649577 [Ensembl GRCm38.p6]).

Development

SJL mice were developed by James Lambert at The Jackson Laboratory in 1955 from three different sources of Swiss Webster mice.

Rmcf^s

Allele Symbol: Rmcf^s

Allele Name	MCF sensitive
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	Rmcf^s; MCF sensitive
Gene Symbol and Name	Rmcf, resistance to MCF virus
Gene Synonym(s)
Strain of Origin	multiple strains
Chromosome	5
General Note	This locus controls resistance and susceptibility of cells in tissue culture to infection by mink cell focus-forming murine leukemia viruses. The allele Rmcf^r determines resistance and occurs in strains DBA/1, DBA/2, and CBA/Ca; the allele Rmcf^s determines susceptibility and occurs in strains AKR/J, C57BL/6, BALB/c, CBA/J, NFS, NZB, 129/J, and many others. Heterozygotes are as resistant as the resistant parent or nearly so. Rmcf is different from and independent of Fv1, a locus that controls susceptibility to infection by ecotropic viruses. Rmcf is located on Chr 5 close to Hm near the centromeric end (J:7108). Rmcf^r protects (AKR x CBA/Ca)F1 and (AKR x DBA/2)F1 hybrids from development of spontaneous thymic lymphomas and reduces the incidence of MCF-induced thymic lymphomas (J:7175). It also reduces susceptibility of cells of Sxv^s/Sxv^r mice to exogenous xenotropic viruses (J:7951). In addition, in strains susceptible to Friend virus-induced erythroleukemia, a condition thought to be due to the replication of MCF virus, Rmcf^r increases resistance to the virus-induced erythroleukemia. It may cause resistance by coding for or regulating the production of an MCF-related envelope glycoprotein that blocks the receptor for MCF viruses (J:8074). This conclusion is reinforced by the findings of Buller et al. (J:8497), who showed that the Rmcf^r allele contains an endogenous MCF gp70 env gene and that the Rmcf^s allele, at least in some strains (C57BL/6, CBA/J, and A/WySn), contains a xenotropic gp70 env gene. Presumably the MCF gp70 inhibits exogenous MCF infection in vitro by a mechanism of viral interference.
Molecular Note	This locus controls resistance of cells to infection by mink cell focus-forming murine leukemia viruses. The recessive s (susceptible) allele is found in AKR/J, C57BL/6, BALB/c, CBA/J, NFS, NZB and 129/J.

Strain of Origin	SJL/J
Chromosome	7
General Note	Previously called Mhv-1, Hv2. This locus controls resistance of neurons and macrophages to infection by the JHM and A59 strains of mouse hepatitis virus MHV-4. The allele Ceacam1^Hv2-r determines resistance and has been found only in the SJL/J strain; the strains A/J, C57BL/10, BALB/c, NZB, DBA/2, AKR/J, CBA/J, C3H/He, and SWR are all susceptible to infection (Ceacam1^Hv2-s. Heterozygotes are fully susceptible (J:6451, J:14870, J:7456).
Molecular Note	This allele determines resistance to infection by the A59 strains of mouse hepatitis virus MHV-4, and is found only in the SJL/J strain. The protein encoded by this allele differs in the first 27 of the 108 amino acids of the first Ig domain compared to the susceptible allele. This region is thought to be important for virus binding.

Disc1^del

Allele Symbol: Disc1^del

Allele Name	deletion

Molecular Note	A 25 bp deletion of the locus causes a frame shift in the reading frame, resulting in 13 novel amino acids and a premature stop codon at exon 7.

Mx1^s1

Allele Symbol: Mx1^s1

Allele Name	myxovirus susceptibility 1
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	Mx1^s1; myxovirus susceptibility 1
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	Many inbred mouse strains have an exon 9 to 11 deletion, resulting in a null allele and susceptibility to myxoviruses, including: A/J, ABP/Le, AKR/J, AU/SsJ, BALB/cJ, BDP/J, BUB/BnJ, C3H/HeJ, C57BL/6J, C57BL/10J, C57BL/KsJ, C57L/J, C58/J, DA/HuSn, DBA/2J, FSB/GnEi, FVB/NJ, LIS/A, LP/J, MA/MyJ, MAS/A, NZB/BINJ, P/J, PL/J, RIIIS/J, RF/J, SEA/GnJ, SEC1/ReJ, SJL/J, ST/bJ, TS1/A, TW1/A. YBR/Ei, 020/A, 129/J, SF/CamEi and SK/CamEi.

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.

Cd5^b

Allele Symbol: Cd5^b

Allele Name	b variant
Allele Type	Spontaneous (Not Applicable)
Allele Synonym(s)	b variant; Cd5^b

Strain of Origin	multiple strains
Chromosome	19
Molecular Note	This variant is found in many inbred strains including C57BL/6J, C58/J, AKR/J, SJL/J, SWR. Sequence analysis shows that relative to the a variant of C3H/HeJ the b variant has point mutations that result in isoleucine instead of valine at amino acid 9, glutamine instead of leucine at amino acid 52, and phenylalanine instead of isoleucine at amino acid 71, all within the amino terminal scavenger receptor cysteine-rich D1 domain, in addition to 7 silent point mutations.

Molecular Note	Two mutations have been identified in rd1 mice. A murine leukimia virus (Xmv-28) insertion in reverse orientation in intron 1 is found in all mouse strains with the rd1 phenotype. Further, a nonsense mutation (C to A transversion) in codon 347 that results in a truncation eliminating more than half of the predicted encoded protein, including the catalytic domain has also been identified in all rd1 strains of mice. A specific degradation of mutant transcript during or after pre-mRNA splicing is suggested.

Ogg1^m1

Allele Symbol: Ogg1^m1

Allele Name	mutation 1
Allele Type	Spontaneous (Not Applicable)
Allele Synonym(s)	Ogg1^m1; mutation 1
Gene Symbol and Name	Ogg1, 8-oxoguanine DNA-glycosylase 1
Gene Synonym(s)	MUTM; Mmh; HMMH; HOGG1; OGH1
Strain of Origin	various
Chromosome	6
Molecular Note	A guanine to adenine change at the fifty-ninth nucleotide in exon 7 resulted in a substitution of the 336th amino acid, arginine, by histidine (R336H) in a putative nuclear localization signal. The mutation led to disruption of the nuclear localization of the enzyme, although the activity remained normal.

Ogg1^m2

Allele Symbol: Ogg1^m2

Allele Name	mutation 2
Allele Type	Spontaneous (Null/Knockout)
Allele Synonym(s)	Ogg1^m2; mutation 2
Gene Symbol and Name	Ogg1, 8-oxoguanine DNA-glycosylase 1
Gene Synonym(s)	MUTM; Mmh; HMMH; HOGG1; OGH1
Strain of Origin	various
Chromosome	6
Molecular Note	A cytosine to thymine change at the twelfth nucleotide in exon 6 results in a substitution of the 304th amino acid, arginine, by tryptophan (R304W).

Dysf^im

Allele Symbol: Dysf^im

Allele Name	inflammatory myopathy
Allele Type	Spontaneous
Allele Synonym(s)	Dysf^im; inflammatory myopathy
Gene Symbol and Name	Dysf, dysferlin
Gene Synonym(s)	2310004N10Rik; 2310004N10Rik; AI604795; RIKEN cDNA 2310004N10 gene; MMD1; DNA segment, Chr 6, Pasteur Institute 3; LGMD2B; FER1L1; expressed sequence AI604795; D6Pas3; LGMDR2
Strain of Origin	SJL
Chromosome	6
Molecular Note	The molecular basis for the mutation is due to a splicing mutation in the gene, resulting from a 141 bp deletion of a small tandem repeat in an intron. This splicing mutation results in the deletion of an exon from the encoded mRNA. This results in a 171 bp in-frame deletion in the encoded mRNA, and is predicted to remove 57 amino acids from the corresponding protein. This region corresponds to most of the fourth C2 domain of the protein, and the deletion likely results in instability of the protein.

Service	Genotype	Price
	Please inquire

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 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.
