Genetic information | These H2-IFNB transgenic mice have the coding region of the murine interferon beta 1 (Ifnb1) gene placed behind the proximal region of the promoter of the murine histocompatibility 2, K1, K region (H2-K1) gene. The transgene integrated into the X-linked monoamine oxidase A (Maoa) gene, replacing Maoa exons 2-3 and abolishing Maoa gene function. |
Phenotypic information | These mice may be useful for studying MAOA-related aggression and abnormal development of neural circuits under excess serotonin. |
Breeding history | brother/sister mating |
