Nomenclature: B6.129-Esr2tm1Unc
Origin
The ERKO-β mouse was developed by Oliver Smithies and John Kreg of the University of North Carolina, Kenneth Korach of NIEHS and Jan-Ake Gustafsson of the Karolinska Institute. The model was created by targeting the Esr2 gene in ES cells of the BK4 subline of E14TG2a (129P2/OlaHsd) and injecting the targeted ES cells into C57BL/6 blastocysts. Resultant chimeras were backcrossed to C57BL/6 for eight generations (N8). Heterozygotes were intercrossed to generate homozygous ERKO-β mice. Taconic received stock from NIEHS in January 2001 and animals were transferred to Taconic for commercial production in September 2001. The mice were derived by embryo transfer through backcrossing to C57BL/6NTac (N9). The colony was maintained through mating of homozygous males to heterozygous females.
This model is cryopreserved and available for recovery. Models can typically be recovered and delivered to customers within 14-16 weeks after order receipt. Purchase of this model includes perpetual use rights and a deliverable of four mutant animals at the Murine Pathogen Free™ health standard along with a genotyping protocol. For models which include a recombinase gene or multiple alleles, all alleles will be provided, but individual animals may not contain all mutant alleles.
