Rock2 - Model 12979 - PM

• The targeting vector has been generated using C57BL/6J DNA and transfected into TaconicArtemis C57BL/6NTac ES cell line.
• Rock2 Exon 1 contains the translation initiation codon.
• The K121A point mutation has been introduced into Rock2 exon 4.
• The positive selection marker (Puromycin resistance - PuroR) has been flanked by FRT sites and inserted into intron 3.
• The constitutive PM allele has been generated after Flp-mediated recombination by crossing chimeras to a Flp-Deleter on a C57BL/6 background.
• The constitutive PM line has been derived using C57BL/6NTac animals and the Flp-transgene was removed by segregation.
• The remaining recombination site will be located in a non-conserved region of the genome.
• Datamining and Design performed in 2012.

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.
