| Genetic information | The MitoCharc0 transgene was designed with the human mitofusin 2 (MNF2) gene driven by a neuron specific enolase promoter. The transgene was microinjected into fertilized C57BL/6 x DBA/2 F1 oocytes, and founder mice were bred to C57BL/6J mice to establish a colony. |
| Phenotypic information | MitoCharc0 transgenic mice display no obvious phenotypes. This strain was generated as a control of the two mutant strains MitoCharc1 and 2. |
| Breeding history | Founders with the mixed background C57BL/6 x B6D2F1 were first bred with pure C57BL/6. Transgenic hemizygotes were bred with non-Tg mice from these breedings. |
