EMMA ID	EM:04974
International strain name	B6.129S-Tnf^tm2Gkl/Flmg
Alternative name	TNFdeltaARE/+
Strain type	Targeted Mutant Strains : Knock-out
Allele/Transgene symbol	Tnf^tm2Gkl
Gene/Transgene symbol	Tnf

Information from provider

Provider	George Kollias
Provider affiliation	B.S.R.C.
Genetic information	A 69 bp deletion encompassing the Tnf AU-rich elements (ARE) was targeted in ES cells together with the neomycin resistance marker (neo) flanked by loxP sequences. Transient expression of cre recombinase in fertilized oocytes from these mice resulted in the excision of the neo gene and the generation of TNFdeltaARE mouse lines.
Phenotypic information	This strain carries a mutation on the Tnf, lacking the ARE element. It models human pathologies such as chronic inflammatory arthritis (OMIM ID:180300) and Crohn's-like chronic inflammatory bowel disease (OMIM ID:266600).
