    Strain Development
    The Cd320 gene was targeted in HGTC-8 mouse embryonic stem cells using the Cre-loxP system. The Cd320tm1Lcb targeted mice were engineered to carry a conditional deletion of the first two of the five exons in the Cd320 gene by flanking exons 1 and 2 with loxP sites. This region targeted for deletion contains the transcription start codon in exon 1 and is predicted to delete the first 83 amino acids of the protein including the sequences for the transmembrane targeting signal and the first LDL-A repeat domain. The Neomycin selection construct is inserted into the intron 2 of the Cd320 gene and is flanked by a third loxp site. The targeting vector was electroporated into the HGTC-8 ES cells derived from C57BL/6J. 240 ES cell colonies were cloned, and 11 homologously targeted clones were identified by Southern blotting. Two clones were expanded and injected into Balb/C blastocysts. These C57BL/6J Cd320tm1Lcb mice on a pure C57BL/6J background were bred to homozygosity, having both alleles flanked by loxP sites (floxed). These mice retain the Neo selection cassette and the three loxp sites.

    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.
