Information from provider
| Provider | Peter Griffiths |
| Provider affiliation | Department of Pathology and Host Susceptibility, Animal Health and Veterinary Laboratories Agency (AHVLA) |
| Genetic information | A ~12 kb transgene, comprised of chimeric DNA sequence encoding a sheep PrP (AHQ) allele region and mouse PrP gene promoter and 3'UTR, was used to microinject pronuclear stage FVB/NIco fertilised oocytes. |
| Phenotypic information | Overexpression of transgenic ovine PrPC in brain and other tissues in order to confer increased susceptibility to TSE diseases compared to wild-type mice. The Tg(OvPrP)EM52 line is hemizygous for the transgene. |
| Breeding history | Inbred to 5 generations. Brother and sister matings. |
