Genetic Alterations
One LoxP site was introduced at the 5' end of the long noncoding RNA, Mir205hg, and a second LoxP site prior to the segment encoding the microRNA, miR-205 (MGI:2676880). This design ensured that the majority of the long noncoding RNA, a 2.5-Mb segment, is eliminated following Cre recombination. The sequence comprising the microRNA remained intact. This line can be used with different Cre transgenics to create tissue-specific knockouts.

    Phenotype

    The floxed mice have a wild-type phenotype.

    Once crossed with a Cre-expressing line (e.g., CAG-Cre such as JAX Strain #004682), the mice displayed growth delay in the donor's laboratory. More specifically, they had a deficiency of a long noncoding RNA, Mir205hg. This led to reduced production of growth hormone and prolactin in young mice, causing a temporal growth impairment. The mechanism involved the long noncoding RNA interactions with a transcription factor, Pit1, and was independent of the embedded microRNA encoded by Mir205 (NR_029592.1).

    Strain Development
    Targeting vector based on pGKneoF2L2dta (Addgene plasmid #13445). The right arm contained 2.3 kb of the regulatory region of Mir205hg. The left arm was 4.1 kB and contained loxP sites inserted 100 bp upstream of Mir205hg. Electroporation of linearized target vector into JM8 ES cells (C57BL/6N) under G418 selection, clonal expansion, and screening via Southern blot for correct targeting into the Mir205hg locus. One ES cell clone, 4H11, was injected into albino B6 blastocysts, and 7 distinct chimeric male mice were recovered. Chimerism ranged from 20-90%. Mice were crossed onto C57BL/J to produce targeted allele animals. The animals were backcrossed to C57BL/6J for 11 generations.

    While the mice described here are still floxed, the donor already tested the elimination of the foxed allele through crosses to CAG-Cre (e.g., JAX Strain #006084 - embryonic targeting; see Phenotype description above). Other crosses are suggested in the context, such as Foxg1-Cre (e.g., JAX Strain #004337) or Foxn1-Cre (e.g., JAX Strain #018448).

    MMRRC Genetic QC Summary
    Genetic QC analysis (GQC) was performed on representative samples from the donor submission and provides a baseline reference. Regardless of the material ordered (live mice, sperm, embryos, resuscitated animals), the provided material is guaranteed to contain the primary genetic alteration of interest; however, the composition of the genetic background may vary (See Reproducibility sections of the report for details). The impact of genetic background on previously reported phenotypes has not been evaluated.

    This QC analysis was done on two samples MY7581 (XY), VK0802 (XX) and the following conclusions are consistent in all samples. The results of the analysis are consistent with the SDS (See Special Considerations for additional information). MY7581 is the representative sample shown in the report. There is positive evidence of C57BL/6J and C57BL/6NCrl substrains. C57BL6N is indicated as the donor background. There is also evidence of C3H, which is not indicated in the submission and the SDS. The mitochondrial genome is identical by descent to the primary and secondary strains. The Y chromosome is consistent with at least one backcross to a male from the C57BL/6J host background. The region containing the allele of interest has/ the expected donor background (C57BL/6N). Both (X#) sample(s) are homozygous for the donor background at the locus. None of the constructs detectable by MiniMUGA are present.

    The genome of the MMRRC: 65422 strain is 99.1 % inbred and 99.1% congenic at the strain level. 0.1% of the genome is segregating for the C3H background. The level of congenicity estimated by miniMUGA is inconsistent (at the substrain level) with the number of backcross generations reported in the SDS (11 generations). 4.3% of the genome is segregating for the two substrains (C57BL/6J and C57BL/6NCrl) that contribute to the primary (host) background. The contribution of C57BL/6J is 92.4%. The contribution of C57BL/6NCrl is 7.6%.

    The estimated inbreeding, congenicity, and the relative strain/substrain contribution depend on the number of samples genotyped. The genomes of strains that are not fully inbred are not completely reproducible. The use of wild type littermates is suggested for controls.

    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@med.unc.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.
