Chromosome: 9

Genetic Alterations
Poglut3 targeting vector was purchased from EuMMCR. Poglut3 tm1a heterozygous ES cells were generated using ES cell line: Nagy G4 (129/SvEvBrd x C57BL/6); JM8A3 (C57BL/6N).
Animals heterozygous for the Poglut3 tm1A allele were generated by injecting ES cells into C57BL/6N blastocysts, and resultant chimeras were mated to females of the same strain of mice to generate animals heterozygous for the Knockout First allele.

Poglut3 tm1c alleles were generated using the mouse codon optimized FLP (FLPo) flippase (B6.129S4-Gt(ROSA)26Sor tm2(FLP*)Sor /J. Subsequently, the Poglut3 tm1.3 allele was generated using Cre-recombinase and is the global null allele.

Genotype Determination
  • Genotyping Protocol(s)
  • Center protocol and contact for technical support will be shipped with mice.
  • ES Cell Line
    JM8A3 derived from C57BL/6N
    Phenotype
    Poglut3 tm1.3 KO homozygotes, in conjunction with Poglut2 KO homozygotes, have severely reduced body size and viablility, and soft tissue syndactyly due to elimination of O-glucosylation on specific EGFs.

    Homozygous animals of this strain appear to need at least one wild type copy of Poglut2 in order to be phenotypically normal.

    Poglut3 tm1.3 heterozygous animals are viable, fertile, and appear phenotypically normal.

    Strain Development
    The PG00252_Z_1_B04 targeting vector Poglut3tm380258(L1L2_Bact_P) was inserted upstream of exon 2 in the Poglut3 locus on chromosome 9. The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by a splice acceptor, IRES, lacZ, polyA site, a loxP site, a neomycin resistance gene, an SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of exon 3. Dr. Robert Haltiwanger (University of Georgia) obtained the targeting vector from EuMMCR (IKMC Project 101611) and had it introduced into JM8A3 embryonic stem (ES) cells and checked for correct targeting at Texas A&M Institute for Genomic Medicine. ES cells were injected into blastocysts, the resulting chimeric males were bred to C57BL/6N females, and Poglut3 tm1Rsh (knockout first) progeny were crossed to B6.129S4-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm2(FLP*)Sor/J (JAX Stock No. 012930) to remove the lacZ reporter and neomycin cassette at the Mouse Transgenic and Gene Targeting Core at Emory University. These mice carrying the Poglut3 tm1.2Rsh allele were then breed to B6.C-Tg(CMV-cre)1Cgn/J (Common name: CMV-cre); JAX strain 006054, to remove Poglut3 exons 2 and 3 to make this Poglut3 tm1.3Rsh global null allele.

    1 The distribution fee covers the expense of rederiving mice from a live mouse; you will receive the resulting litter. The litter will contain at minimum one mutant carrier; the actual number of animals and the gender and genotype ratios will vary. (Typically, multiple breeder pairs can be established from the recovered litter.) Prior to shipment, the MMRRC will provide information about the animals recovered. If you anticipate or find that you need to request specific genotypes, genders or quantities of mice in excess of what is likely from a resuscitated litter, you may discuss available options and pricing with the supplying MMRRC facility.

    2 An aliquot contains a sufficient number of embryos (in one or more vials or straws and based on the transfer success rate of the MMRRC facility) to transfer into one to three recipients. The MMRRC makes no guarantee concerning embryo transfer success experienced in the recipient investigator's laboratory. Neither gender nor genotype ratios are guaranteed.

    3 An aliquot is one straw or vial with sufficient sperm to recover at least one litter of mice, as per provided protocols, when performed at the MMRRC facility. The MMRRC makes no guarantee concerning the success of these procedures when performed outside the MMRRC facilities.

    4 The distribution fee covers the expense of resuscitating mice from the cryo-archive; you will receive the resulting litter. The litter will contain at minimum one mutant carrier; the actual number of animals and the gender and genotype ratios will vary. (Typically, multiple breeder pairs can be established from the recovered litter.) Prior to shipment, the MMRRC will provide information about the animals recovered. If you anticipate or find that you need to request specific genotypes, genders or quantities of mice in excess of what is likely from a resuscitated litter, you may discuss available options and pricing with the supplying MMRRC facility.
