Detailed Description

Homozygous neonates are smaller than their wildtype and heterozygous littermates. They develop normally until approximately 21 days of age, when they develop an acute and rapid, aging-like degenerative pathology resulting in death by postnatal day 24. Homozygous mutant mice exhibit subcutaneous fat loss, lordokyphosis (hunchbacked spine) with osteopenia (30% loss of bone mineral density), colitis, and severe lymphopenia due to increased lymphocyte apoptosis. At day 12, mice have reduced insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1) levels in serum, and develop severe hypoglycemia. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) prepared from homozygous embryos exhibit reduced proliferation, defective base excision repair function, as indicated by increased sensitivity to alkylating agents and ionizing radiation, and increased chromosomal aberrations. The donating investigators report that no gene product (mRNA or protein) is detected by RT-PCR or immuoblot analysis of tissues, MEFs or embryonic stem cells from homozygotes. The targeting construct placed a lacZ expression cassette in frame into exon 1 of the mRNA coding sequence, and beta-galactosidase staining is detected in most adult and embryonic tissues. This mutant mouse strain may be useful in studies related to DNA damage repair, genomic stability, and aging.

Development

A targeting vector containing the lacZ and neomycin resistance genes was used to disrupt exons 1 to 6. The construct was electroporated into 129S6/SvEvTac-derived TC1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6J blastocysts. The resulting chimeric male animals were crossed to 129X1/SvJ female mice.

Expression Data

Expressed Gene	lacZ, beta-galactosidase, E. coli
Site of Expression	Expression of lacZ can be detected in most adult and embryonic tissues.

We will fulfill your order by providing at least two pair of mice, at least one animal of each pair carrying the mutation of interest. Please inquire if larger numbers of animals with specific genotype and genders are needed. Animals typically ship between 10 and 14 weeks from the date of your order. If a second cryorecovery is needed in order to provide the minimum number of animals, animals will ship within 25 weeks.

The genotypes of animals provided may not reflect the mating scheme utilized by The Jackson Laboratory prior to cryopreservation, or that discussed in the strain description. Please inquire about possible genotypes which will be recovered for this specific strain. The Jackson Laboratory 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.

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.
