International strain name | B6.129P2-Cycstm1Mak/Cnbc |
Alternative name | Cytochrome C C57Bl6 |
Strain type | Targeted Mutant Strains : Knock-in |
Allele/Transgene symbol | Cycstm1Mak |
Gene/Transgene symbol | Cycs |
Information from provider
Provider | Tak W Mak |
Provider affiliation | Division of Stem Cell and Developmental Biology, Advanced Medical Discovery Institute/Ontario Cancer Institute |
Genetic information | We used site-directed mutagenesis to mutate the codon AAA that starts at nucleotide 216. The K72A (KA) knock-in allele was introduced into the murine genomic ytochrome c (Cycs) locus in embryonic stem cells by homologous recombination. |
Phenotypic information | We generated knock-in mice expressing a mutant cytochrome c (Cycs; KA allele), which retains normal electron transfer function but fails to activate Apaf-1. Most KA/KA mice displayed embryonic or perinatal lethality caused by defects in the central nervous system, and surviving mice exhibited impaired lymphocyte homeostasis. |
Breeding history | Backcrossed 10 times to C57BL/6. |
