Information from provider

ProviderRaija Soininen
Provider affiliationBiocenter Oulu, University of Oulu
Additional ownerProf. Karl Tryggvason, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden
Genetic informationExons 1 and 2 have been replaced by the PGK-neo cassette.
Phenotypic informationHomozygous:
Homozygotes for targeted null mutations exhibit impaired motor control of the hind limbs associated with improperly positioned synaptic active zones and junctional folds, and prenatal and neonatal hemorrhages associated with capillary defects.

Heterozygous:
none observed
Breeding historyBackcrossing into C57BL/6NCrl more than 10 generations, then transferred to another animal facility and breeding continued by sib-mating and occasionally to C57BL/6JOlaHsd.

Availabilities

Requesting frozen sperm or embryos is generally advisable wherever possible, in order to minimise the shipment of live mice.

  • Frozen embryos. Delivered in 4 weeks (after paperwork in place). €1740*
  • Frozen sperm. Delivered in 4 weeks (after paperwork in place). €1740*
  • Rederivation of mice from frozen stock, delivery time available upon request . €3880*

Due to the dynamic nature of our processes strain availability may change at short notice. The local repository manager will advise you in these circumstances.

* In addition users have to cover all the shipping costs (including the cost for returning dry-shippers, where applicable).
