Chromosome | 9 |
Molecular Note | A 4 kb region, including the last 92 bp of exon 9 and the entire exon 10, was replaced with a promoterless LacZ-Neo fusion gene (beta-galactosidase reporter). This deletion includes exon 9 sequences that encode Asp395, which forms part of the catalytic His-Asp-Ser triad. The in-frame insertion of the LacZ-Neo fusion gene leads to the expression of a fusion protein consisting of the first 377 amino acids fused to beta-galactosidase. High and moderate levels of RNA transcripts were detected in urinary bladder, skin, tongue, seminal vesicle, coagulating gland, and prostate gland. No RNA transcripts are detectable in nervous tissue, liver, bone marrow, small intestine, or cecum. LacZ expression was detected in many tissues examined, particularly in the epidermis and urinary bladder. No LacZ expression was detected in spinal cord, sciatic nerve, spleen, lymph nodes, bone marrow, aorta, liver, pancreas, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, skeletal muscle, testis, ovary, or uterus. Detailed X-gal staining analysis of young adult heterozygotes revealed particularly strong expression in multi-layered squamous epithelium, including the epidermis, hair follicles, oral epithelium, cornea and upper digestive tract, high levels of expression in the transitional epithelium of the bladder, and much lower levels in the prostate, heart, intestine, kidney and thymus. |

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. We do not guarantee breeding performance and therefore suggest that investigators order more than one breeding pair to avoid delays in their research.
