C57BL/6N-A^tm1Brd Mep1a^{tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi}/WtsiIeg

Status	Available to order
EMMA ID	EM:11203
International strain name	C57BL/6N-A^tm1Brd Mep1a^{tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi}/WtsiIeg
Alternative name	EPD0568_1_F02
Strain type	Targeted Mutant Strains
Allele/Transgene symbol	Mep1a^{tm1a(KOMP)Wtsi}
Gene/Transgene symbol	Mep1a
Disclaimer	Please note that for EUCOMM and KOMP-CSD mice supplied to the scientific community by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA: We can not guarantee a null mutation for Knock-out first alleles (tm1a alleles, see http://www.mousephenotype.org/about-ikmc/targeting-strategies) as the critical exon has not been deleted. That the structure of the targeted mutation in the ES cells obtained from EUCOMM/KOMP to generate EUCOMM/KOMP mice is not verified by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA. It is recommended that the recipient confirms the mutation structure. No check for determining the copy number of the targeting construct in ES cells obtained from EUCOMM/KOMP is done by INFRAFRONTIER/EMMA. The level of quality control before mice are released is to confirm the individual mouse genotype by short range PCR.

Availabilities

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

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).
