B6.129P2-Cycs^tm1Mak/Cnbc

Status	Available to order
EMMA ID	EM:07226
International strain name	B6.129P2-Cycs^tm1Mak/Cnbc
Alternative name	Cytochrome C C57Bl6
Strain type	Targeted Mutant Strains : Knock-in
Allele/Transgene symbol	Cycs^tm1Mak
Gene/Transgene symbol	Cycs

Information from provider

Provider	Tak W Mak
Provider affiliation	Division of Stem Cell and Developmental Biology, Advanced Medical Discovery Institute/Ontario Cancer Institute
Genetic information	We used site-directed mutagenesis to mutate the codon AAA that starts at nucleotide 216. The K72A (KA) knock-in allele was introduced into the murine genomic ytochrome c (Cycs) locus in embryonic stem cells by homologous recombination.
Phenotypic information	We generated knock-in mice expressing a mutant cytochrome c (Cycs; KA allele), which retains normal electron transfer function but fails to activate Apaf-1. Most KA/KA mice displayed embryonic or perinatal lethality caused by defects in the central nervous system, and surviving mice exhibited impaired lymphocyte homeostasis.
Breeding history	Backcrossed 10 times to C57BL/6.
References	Specific ablation of the apoptotic functions of cytochrome C reveals a differential requirement for cytochrome C and Apaf-1 in apoptosis.;Hao Zhenyue, Duncan Gordon S, Chang Chia-Che, Elia Andrew, Fang Min, Wakeham Andrew, Okada Hitoshi, Calzascia Thomas, Jang YingJu, You-Ten Annick, Yeh Wen-Chen, Ohashi Pamela, Wang Xiaodong, Mak Tak W, ;2005;Cell;121;579-591; 15907471
Homozygous fertile	yes
Homozygous viable	yes
Homozygous matings required	no
Immunocompromised	not known

Order

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).
