Overview

JAXTag™

Also Known As: multiple intestinal neoplasia, Min

Heterozygotes of this strain develop anemia and are highly susceptible to spontaneous intestinal adenoma formation. Homozygous C57BL/6J-Apc^Min/J mice are not viable. The increased incidence of colorectal adenomas renders these mice a useful model of colon cancer. A small number of C57BL/6J-Apc^Min heterozygous female mice develop mammary tumors.

Detailed Description

The C57BL/6J-Apc^Min/J strain is highly susceptible to spontaneous intestinal adenoma formation. Homozygous mice are not viable. It was initially reported that one hundred percent of the C57BL/6J-Apc^Min heterozygous mice raised on a high fat diet develop in excess of 30 adenomas throughout the intestinal tract and most die by 120 days of age. Heterozygotes also develop anemia. (Moser et al., 1990, Su et al., 1992). A small number of C57BL/6J-Apc^Min heterozygous female mice develop mammary tumors. A subsequent publication indicates that this strain may carry a dominant modifier (Mom2) gene that reduces the number and incidence of polyp formation in C57BL/6J-Apc^Min heterozygous mice (Silverman et al., 2002).

This strain ships with a JAXTag^TM affixed. Learn more about JAXTag^TM.

Development

Following N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) treatments to induce mutations in founder C57BL/6J mice, a forward genetic screen identified a AKR/JxB6 F1 female displaying circling behavior. This female was mated to C57BL/6J males. Some progeny from this backcross developed adult onset anemia and multiple intestinal neoplasia (Min). A tumor suppressor gene, Apc (adenomatosis polyposis coli), mutations of which have been identified in colorectal cancers and familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), was found to cosegregate with the Min phenotype. Sequencing of Apc identified a T to A transversion of nucleotide 2549 resulting in a Leucine to a Stop codon nonsense mutation. The circling behavior was determined to be a separate heritable trait and was eliminated through subsequent crosses to C57BL/6J. These Apc^Min mice maintained on a C57BL/6J background when they were sent to The Jackson Laboratory in 1992.

Chromosome	18
Molecular Note	A transversion point mutation that alters nucleotide 2549 from a T to an A (mRNA: NM_001360980.1; protein: NM_007462.3). This converts codon 850 from one encoding a leucine to a stop codon (p.Leu850*), truncating the expected polypeptide.

Breeding Considerations

This strain is a good breeder.

This strain is maintained by breeding heterozygote males to C57BL/6J females. Female heterozygotes are not recommended because anemia and intestinal adenomas interfere with pregnancy. Breeding performance in heterozygote males declines as anemia and tumors develop.

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.

Payment Terms and Conditions

Terms are granted by individual review and stated on the customer invoice(s) and account statement. These transactions are payable in U.S. currency within the granted terms. Payment for services, products, shipping containers, and shipping costs that are rendered are expected within the payment terms indicated on the invoice or stated by contract. Invoices and account balances in arrears of stated terms may result in The Jackson Laboratory pursuing collection activities including but not limited to outside agencies and court filings.

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.
