Autosomal beta-cell toxigene strain - Mouse Strain RES209
Mouse Information
| Common Name: | Autosomal beta-cell toxigene strain |
|---|---|
| MGI Official Name: | NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl Tg(Ins2-HBEGF)6832Ugfm/Sz |
| Description: | NOD-Prkdcscid IL2rg null Tg(Ins2- HBEGF)6832Ugfm mice are deficient in mature lymphocytes and NK cells, survive beyond 16 months of age, and even after sublethal irradiation resist lymphoma development. They can be induced to become hypoglycemic when Diphtheria toxin is used. 100% of beta cells will be depleted upon administration of diphtheria toxin. |

| Expressed Gene | Diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) | ||||
| Description of Transgene | The RIP-DTR transgene was made by Pedro Herrera by subcloning the human HB-EGF cDNA into the EcoRI/SaII sites of a plasmid containing a 0.7Kb-long fragment of the rat insulin II promoter, and a 1.6 kb-long sequence containing an intron and the polyA signal of the rabbit beta globin gene. |
