| Genetic information | The proximal bovine thyroglobulin (TG) promoter was used to target the dominant active KCNIP3 (DREAM) mutant insensitive to calcium and cAMP (LeuEFmDREAM) to the thyroid gland. The transgenic cassette was microinjected into the pronuclei of one-cell embryos (B6CBA) using standard techniques. Founder mice were backcrossed to C57BL/6 background. |
| Phenotypic information | High level of transgene expression. Thyroid glands from 9- to 12-months old mice showed a marked enlargement of the transgenic gland compared with wild-type, that could be either diffuse, resembling a colloid goiter, or nodular, resembling human multinodular goiters. |
| Breeding history | Generated in B6CBA background and backcrossed (>10 times) to C57BL/6. Currently maintained as hemizygous in C57BL/6 background. |
