B6.Cg-Fcgrt^tm1Dcr Prkdc^scid/DcrJ

Stock number: 018541
Product name: FcRn KO scid
Research areas: Cell Biology Research, Immunology, Inflammation and Autoimmunity Research, Internal/Organ Research, Neurobiology Research, Research Tools, Virology Research

Description

Mice homozygous for the Fcgrt^tm1Dcr and Prkdc^scid alleles produce no mature T cells or B cells and have low serum levels of IgG and albumin. This strain may be used as a control for B6.Cg-Fcgrt^tm1Dcr Prkdc^scid Tg(FCGRT)32Dcr/DcrJ (Stock No. 018441).

Detailed description

Mice homozygous for the Fcgrt^tm1Dcr and Prkdc^scid alleles produce no mature T cells or B cells and have low serum levels of IgG and albumin. This strain may be used as a control for B6.Cg-Fcgrt^tm1Dcr Prkdc^scid Tg(FCGRT)32Dcr/DcrJ (Stock No. 018441).

Development

These mice were generated by crossing B6.129X1-Fcgrt^tm1Dcr/DcrJ mice (STOCK No. 003982) to B6.CB17-Prkdc^scid/SzJ mice (STOCK No. 001913).

Allele

Symbol: Prkdc^scid
Name: severe combined immunodeficiency
MGI accession ID: MGI:1857113
Generation method: Spontaneous
Marker symbol: Prkdc
Marker name: protein kinase, DNA activated, catalytic polypeptide
Chromosome: 16
Strain of origin: C.BKa-Igh^b/Icr
Site of expression: T and B lymphocytes.
Molecular note: A T-to-A transversion point mutation at a position corresponding to codon 4046 (codon 4095 in transcript ENSMUST00000023352.8) created a premature stop codon (p.Y4046*).

Allele

Symbol: Fcgrt^tm1Dcr
Name: targeted mutation 1, Derry C Roopenian
MGI accession ID: MGI:3511510
Generation method: Targeted
Attributes: Null/Knockout
Marker symbol: Fcgrt
Marker name: Fc receptor, IgG, alpha chain transporter
Chromosome: 7
Strain of origin: 129X1/SvJ
Molecular note: Sequence from exon 1 and part of exon2 was replaced with a PGK-neo cassette. Quantitative PCR of liver cDNA indicated the absence of mRNA. Western blot analysis of neonatal intestinal extracts failed to reveal protein product.
