Dhrs4 - Model 10064 - KO

• The targeting vector has been generated using C57BL/6J DNA and transfected into TaconicArtemis C57BL/6NTac ES cell line.
• Exon 1 contains the translation initiation codon.
• Exon 2 has been flanked by loxP sites (size of loxP-flanked region: 1.4 kb).
• The constitutive KO allele has been generated after Cre-mediated recombination by crossing chimeras to a Cre-Deleter on a C57BL/6 background.
• The constitutive KO line has been derived using C57BL/6NTac animals and the Cre-transgene was removed by segregation.
• Deletion of exon 2 should result in loss of function of the Dhrs4 gene by deleting part of the catalytic domain and by generating a frameshift from exon 1 to exons 3 and 4.
• According to the NCBI and Ensembl databases, the BC036313 gene (Entrez ID: 268747) or Lrrc16b gene (ENSMUSG00000022211) is located approx. 10 kb downstream of Dhrs4 exon 2 in a tail-to-head orientation.
• Datamining and Design performed in 2009.

GEM Collection models exist as cryopreserved materials. Models can typically be recovered and delivered to customers within 14-16 weeks after order receipt. Customers will receive:

• A minimum of four (4) mice mutant for the selected mutation. In rare cases where the cryopreserved material also contains a recombinase gene, this may be reduced to 1-2 mutant mice.
• Validated genotyping protocols
• Animal health report. Mice will meet Taconic's Murine Pathogen Free™ (MPF™) health standard.

Please note that in rare instances (2%) cryorecovery may prove to be difficult, either extending timeline or ultimately successful recovery.
