Strain Information

Ntrk1tm1(cre)Lfr
Name: neurotrophic tyrosine kinase, receptor, type 1; targeted mutation 1, Louis F Reichardt
Synonyms: Ntrk1tm3(cre)Lfr, trkA-IRES-cre
Type: Allele
Species: Mus musculus (mouse)
Chromosome: 3
Alteration at locus: Knock-In
cre
Name: cre recombinase
Type: Gene
Species: Enterobacteria phage P1 (bacteriophage P1)
Chromosome:
Alteration at locus: Knock-In
Ntrk1
Name: neurotrophic tyrosine kinase, receptor, type 1
Synonyms: TrkA, Tkr
Type: Gene
Species: Mouse
Chromosome: 3
Alteration at locus: Knock-In
NCBI: 18211
HGNC: HGNC:8031
Homologene: 1898
Genetic Alterations
An IRES-cre cassette was inserted after the stop codon of the endogenous gene so that Cre recombinase is expressed under control of the Ntrk1gene's promoter, without disrupting the gene's own coding sequence or expression.
Genotype Determination
ES Cell Line
J1
Phenotype
This mouse strain provides a useful tool to study the function and regulation of Ntrk1-expressing cells, which include primary sensory neusons in pain sensation, and cholinergic neurons in the basal forebrain that are implicated in the Alzheimer's Disease. It is also useful to study Ntrk1-expressing cells in cancer research.
Strain Development
This mouse line was maintained by sib-mating and/or C57BL/6 crossing from the founder.
Suggested Control Mice
Wild-type littermates
MMRRC Genetic QC Summary
The MMRRC Centers have developed a genetic QC pipeline using MiniMUGA array genotyping to provide additional information on strain backgrounds for MMRRC congenic and inbred strains. For more information on when data may be available, or to request genotyping for a strain of interest, please contact mmrrc@ucdavis.edu. Older strains may not have this information.

Colony and Husbandry Information

Colony Surveillance Program and Current Health Reports

Mice recovered from a cryo-archive will have health surveillance performed on recipient females. Health reports will be provided prior to shipment. If you require additional health status information, please email mmrrc@ucdavis.edu.

Order Request Information

Limited quantities of breeder mice (recovered litter) are available from a cryoarchive; recovered litter usually available to ship in 3 to 4 months.

Cryopreserved material may be available upon request, please inquire to mmrrc@ucdavis.edu for more information.

Distribution of this strain requires submission of the MMRRC Conditions of Use (COU). A link to the COU web form will be provided via email after an order has been placed; the form should be completed then or the email forwarded to your institutional official for completion.

The donor or their institution limits the distribution to non-profit institutions only.

Additional charges may apply for any special requests. Shipping costs are in addition to the basic distribution/resuscitation fees. Information on shipping costs and any additional charges will be provided by the supplying MMRRC facility.

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.
