Overview

Both ubiquitin/proteasome system reporter (UPS reporter) founder lines, Ub^G76V-GFP/1 (Stock No. 008111) and Ub^G76V-GFP/2 (Stock No. 008112), may be useful for monitoring the role of ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent proteolysis in diverse disorders, and for efficacy trials testing the effect of compounds on the ubiquitin/proteasome system (including the effect of proteasome inhibitors as novel anticancer drugs).

Detailed Description

Hemizygous transgenic mice are viable and fertile; they contain the green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to a constitutively active degradation signal (Ub^G76V). Transgenic transcripts are detected in all tissues examined; however no GFP protein expression is detected due to the G76V substitution which leads to its ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Following administration of proteasome inhibitors, Ub^G76V accumulates and GFP-derived fluorescence is readily apparent, evidence of an impaired ubiquitin/proteasome system. This strain and Ub^G76V-GFP/1 (Stock No. 008111) have similar expression patterns, but this line (Ub^G76V-GFP/2) shows lower transgene expression and is not reported to display background fluorescence. These strains may be useful for monitoring ubiquitin/proteasome-dependent proteolysis in diverse disorders, and in efficacy trials for monitoring the effect of compounds on the ubiquitin/proteasome system (for example, in tests with proteasome inhibitors as novel anticancer drugs).

Development

The Ub^G76V-GFP transgene was designed with a chicken beta-actin promoter (and cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early enhancer) upstream of a green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to a mutant ubiquitin moiety (Ub^G76V), a constitutively active proteasome degradation signal. The transgene was microinjected into the pronucleus of fertilized (CBAxC57BL/6)F1 oocytes, and the transgenic offspring e bred to C57BL/6N. Founder line 2 (Ub^G76V-GFP/2) mice, with lower expression of the transgene than line 1, were backcrossed to C57BL/6N for approximately 30 generations prior to arrival at The Jackson Laboratory. Upon arrival, mice were bred with C57BL/6NJ (Stock No. 005304) to establish the colony.

Expression Data

Expressed Gene	GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein,
Site of Expression	Transgene transcripts are detected in all tissues examined; however the G76V substitution leads to degradation, of the GFP.

Strain of Origin	(CBA x C57BL/6)F1
Chromosome	UN
Molecular Note	The Ub^G76V-GFP transgene was designed with a chicken beta-actin promoter (and cytomegalovirus (CMV) immediate early enhancer) upstream of a green fluorescent protein (GFP) fused to a mutant ubiquitin moiety (UbG76V). This transgene was microinjected into the pronucleus of fertilized (CBA x C57BL/6)F1 oocytes. Although transcripts of the Ub^G76V-GFP fusion gene are detected in all tissues examined, the G76V substitution prevents removal of the ubiquitin moiety leading to efficient ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of the fusion protein (and thus no fluorescence) in these tissues. Line 2 with low expression was maintained by backcross to C57BL/6N mice.

Progeny testing is not required

The average number of mice provided from recovery of our cryopreserved strains is 10. The total number of animals provided, their gender and genotype will vary. 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.

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.
