Strain Information

Il13ra1tm1c(EUCOMM)Hmgu
Name: interleukin 13 receptor, alpha 1; targeted mutation 1c, Helmholtz Zentrum Muenchen GmbH
Type: Allele
Species: Mus musculus (mouse)
Chromosome: X
Il13ra1
Name: interleukin 13 receptor, alpha 1
Synonyms: CD213a1
Type: Gene
Species: Mus musculus (mouse)
Chromosome: X
NCBI: 16164
HGNC: HGNC:5974
Homologene: 1198
Genetic Alterations
Conditional-ready knockout of Il13ra1 in which exon 4 has been floxed. The neomycin cassette has been removed.
ES Cell Line
JM8A3.N1 derived from C57BL/6N
Phenotype

Normal/wild-type. This can be useful for studying tissue-specific knockout of Il13ra1 when crossed with various Cre-expressing models.

Conditional phenotype: Il13ra1 will be non-functional in Cre-expressing tissues.

Strain Development
This strain was generated by producing chimeric founders via EuMMCR targeted ES cells (JM8A3.N1 clone number: HEPD0627_5_C12). The chimeras were tested for germline transmission by breeding to C57BL/6J mates. The Frt-flanked neomycin cassette was removed by crossing to a FLP deleter strain (RRID:IMSR_JAX:009086) thus turning the EuMMCR tm1a allele into the tm1c (conditional-ready) allele.
Suggested Control Mice
Littermate Cre-negative floxed animals would be the ideal control. However, this model is on a C57BL/6J genetic background and these common wild-type animals could be used for some control experiments.
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@missouri.edu. Older strains may not have this information.

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@missouri.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.

Units Notes
068109-MU-RESUS Litter recovered from cryo-archive $2,624.00 / Non-Profit Litter Recovered litter4; additional fees for any special requests.
Cryopreserved material may be available upon request, please inquire to mmrrc@missouri.edu for more information.

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.
