| International strain name | 129(Cg)-Synbtm1.2Ics/Orl |
| Alternative name | 129/sv Syncytin-B KO |
| Strain type | Targeted Mutant Strains : Knock-out |
| Allele/Transgene symbol | Synbtm1.2Ics |
| Gene/Transgene symbol | Synb |
Information from provider
| Provider | Thierry Heidmann |
| Provider affiliation | Insitut Gustave Roussy, UMR9196 CNRS |
| Genetic information | Mice containing an excised copy of the syncytin-B open reading frame. |
| Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Homozygous null embryos display an impaired placentation, with late onset growth retardation and reduced neonate numbers.Heterozygous:no alteration |
| Breeding history | The original founder (B6.129/Sv) was backcrossed 10 times to 129/Sv. Then, four homozygous mutant siblings, obtained from two couples, were bred and the mutant strain was subsequently maintained in a homozygous state for more than 7 generations. |
