| Genetic information | One of an allelic series of R6/2 transgenic mice with a CAG repeat of 500. |
| Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Not bred to homozygosityHeterozygous:The mice have no overt phenotype up to 2 years of age. Brain huntingtin-positive aggregates are present in the brain at end state. |
| Breeding history | This line arose spontaneously from R6/2 line with a CAG repeat of 250. It has been maintained by crossing onto wild-type (C57BL/6J x CBA)F1 females. |
