Description

This strain is extinct. Search JAX® Mice Database for other shmy alleles.

Detailed description

Mice homozygous for the shimmy 2 Jackson mutation have a shaking wobbling gait evident by 5 weeks of age and appear to vibrate when held by their tails.

Development

The shimmy 2 Jackson mutation arose spontaneously in 2001 on B10.D1-H2^q/SgJ when that strain was at generation F28. This strain has been maintained via sibling mating primarily homozygous females with heterozygous males.
