Oatp1a/1b Cluster Knockout Mouse

Genetic Background:

FVB/N Background

Origin:

The Oatp1a/1b Cluster Knockout Mouse was developed in the laboratory of Alfred Schinkel of the Netherlands Cancer Institute in 2010. The model was generated by insertion of loxP sites into the Slco1a5 and Slco1b2 genes at both ends of the Slco1a/1b gene cluster in E14 embryonic stem cells derived from 129P2/OlaHsd mice, followed by Cre-mediated deletion and injecting the targeted cells into C57BL/6J blastocysts. Resultant chimeras were backcrossed to FVB/N mice for at least 7 generations (N7). Taconic received stock in 2010. The mice were derived by embryo transfer and are maintained by incrossing of homozygous mice.
