Genetic information | Mice carry the known mutation of Map3k14 (mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 14, aka NIK, NF-kB inducing kinase) termed aly (alymphoplasia). That mutation arose spontaneously on a mixed background (AEJ/GnRk * C57BL/6J; The Jackson Lab ref. J:16865, PubMed ref. PMID 8299692) and was later identified as G-to-A transition point mutation resulting in a replacement of a conserved glycine for an arginine at position 855 of the encoded protein (The Jackson Lab ref. J:54529; PubMed ref. PMID 10319865). The mutant allele was reported to be bred to C57BL/6. However, variations in the proportions of marginal B cells in the spleen, reported to be absent in aly mice, were observed here. For this reason, the mutant allele was backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 12 generations (exchanging the sex chromosomes along). |
Phenotypic information | Homozygous:Alymphoplasia, see The Jackson Lab ref. J:16865, PubMed ref. PMID 8299692. Underlying mutation: see The Jackson Lab ref. J:54529, PubMed ref. PMID 10319865.Heterozygous:nothing obvious |
Breeding history | The mutant allele was backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 12 generations (exchanging the sex chromosomes along). Following this, the line was expanded by intercrossing to obtain aly/aly homozygotes. Since aly/aly females are supposedly unable to lactate, the line is maintained as aly heterozygous females mated with aly/aly homozygous males. |
