Hmgn1,n2 DKO, Hmgn1-/-n2-/-
Hmgn1 and Hmgn2 (high mobility group nucleosomal binding domain) double KO mice exhibit multiple phenotypes in metabolism and an altered distribution of leukocyte subpopulations. Mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) from double KO mice exhibit alterations in DNAse 1 hypersensitive sites. These mice may be useful for research in chromatin regulatory sites and nucleosome binding architectural proteins.
ESVJ-1183, v6.4,
Double KO mice exhibit multiple phenotypes in screens performed by the German Mouse Clinic including: increased food intake, decreased body mass, decreased glucose and cholesterol in fasting males, increased triglyceride, glycerol and NEFA in fasting females, lower plasma insulin, higher frequencies of T, NK and NKT cells, altered CD4+ to CD8+ ratios in T cells and an altered distribution of cells in the NK and B cell compartments, reduced corneal thickness, enlarged eye axial lengths and increased numbers of fundic blood vessels. These mice may be useful for research in chromatin regulatory sites and nucleosome binding architectural proteins.
Cryo-recovered strains distributed by the MMRRC at JAX are shipped to the customer from the Pathogen & Opportunistic-Free Animal Room G200 - see https://www.jax.org/jax-mice-and-services/customer-support/customer-service/animal-health/health-status-reports.
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 csmmrrc@jax.org 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.
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.
