Overview

Also Known As:B6.129P2(Cg)-Hprt^{tm13(Ple54-EGFP)Ems}

These mice have the Ple54-EGFP transgene targeted as a single copy "knockin" into the upstream region of the Hprt locus on the X chromosome. The promoter/regulatory regions of the human DCX gene directs expression of EGFP.

Expression Data

Expressed Gene	GFP, Green Fluorescent Protein,
Site of Expression	Detection of EGFP is strongest in soma of cells in the neurogenic regions of the adult brain: the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus as well as the forebrain subventricular zone (rostral migratory stream and olfactory bulb). Additionally, EGFP-positive cell bodies are detected in the neuropil of the cortex, hippocampus and brainstem. Double label immunocytochemistry shows that the EGFP -positive cells of the forebrain subventricular zone and the rostral migratory stream co-express Doublecortin.

Strain of Origin	(B6.129P2-Hprt^b-m3/J x 129S-Gt(ROSA)26Sor^tm1Sor/J)F1
Chromosome	X
General Note	Germ line transmission of mutant cell line mEMS1927 has been established.
Molecular Note	The Ple54-EGFP/NLS transgene (pEMS1200) was designed with the 3687 bp Ple54 minipromoter (DCX-C; derived from a portion of the promoter and two downstream putative regulatory elements from the human doublecortin (DCX) gene) upstream of a minimal F5 mutant-frt site, an enhanced green fluorescent protein (with mutated TAA->TTA stop), a nuclear localization signal, a second minimal frt site, an SV40 early polyA signal, and a human HPRT complementary sequence (containing exon1, intron1, exon2, and part of intron2). This construct was targeted as a single copy knockin to the Hprtb-m3 mutant locus on the X chromosome. Detection of EGFP is strongest in soma of cells in the neurogenic regions of the adult brain: the subgranular zone of the dentate gyrus as well as the forebrain subventricular zone (rostral migratory stream and olfactory bulb). Additionally, EGFP-positive cell bodies are detected in the neuropil of the cortex, hippocampus and brainstem. Double label immunocytochemistry shows that the EGFP-positive cells of the forebrain subventricular zone and the rostral migratory stream co-express Doublecortin.

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