Availability & Fees Order this Strain
1 When indicated as verified ("YES"), then please note that information presented is to the best of our knowledge correct and up-to-date at the time of verification at the MMRRC Distribution Center; however, this information is subject to change due to breeding, maintenance, and other actions on the mouse strain at the MMRRC Distribution Center; direct any questions on this table to the MMRRC Distribution Center for this mouse stain.
2 If verification has not been performed (as indicated by "NO"), investigators may request specific verification testing for a fee. Requests should be submitted directly to the MMRRC Distribution Center assigned to the management, archiving, and distribution of the strain. A full listing of available testing and analytical services is available at https://www.mmrrc.org/about/services.php.
3 This information may or may not apply to each individual engineered allele (e.g., Cre, FlpO) present in the strain.
4 Recovery refers to thawing, in vitro fertilization (IVF), and/or embryo culture leading to live offspring.
Cytoplasmic dynein heavy chain (Dync1h1) is a is a microtubule motor protein responsible for retrograde intracellular transport. A mouse model was generated carrying a patient-derived, de novo heterozygous Dync1h1 point mutation in a functional ATPase domain (c.9052C>T; p.P3018S), originally identified in a child with motor deficits and intellectual disability.
Immunofluorescent analyses shows abnormal neuronal migration in the dorsal and lateral neocortex with heterotopia in layer I. Neuron-subtype specific transcription factors CUX1 and CTGF identified neurons from layers II/III and VI respectively in cortical layer I, and abnormal pyramidal neurons with MAP2+ dendrites projecting downward from the pial surface.
To request gene-specific and other genotyping services for a strain, please contact the distribution MMRRC Center for more information.
The MMRRC has developed a Genetic Quality Control pipeline using the MiniMUGA array to provide additional information to identify and validate genetic backgrounds of MMRRC strains. For more information on whether genetic background data is available, please contact MMRRC_GeneticQC@med.unc.edu. Note: that MiniMUGA genetic background data is not available on all strains, but can be ordered if desired.

Patient-specific mutation of Dync1h1 in mice causes brain and behavioral deficits. Neurobiol Dis. 2024 Sep;199:106594. doi: 10.1016/j.nbd.2024.106594. Epub 2024 Jul 16. (Medline PMID: 39025270)
Disclaimer: If MMRRC Strain Genetic Quality Control (GQC; based on MiniMUGA genotyping and analysis) has been completed for this strain, the information might differ from the genetic background information provided by the submitter. MiniMUGA genetic analysis is done on a strain’s tissue samples taken when archived by or ordered from the assigned MMRRC Center.
Limited quantities of breeder mice (up to 2 males and 2 females or 4 mice) per investigator per month are available from a live colony, usually available to ship in under 12 weeks. Larger quantities may be available, please contact the distributing center directly at csmmrrc@jax.org for more details.
Cryopreserved material may be available upon request, please inquire to csmmrrc@jax.org for more information.
A Commercial License Agreement from the Submitter is required for for-profit entities to use this strain. For more information, please contact Office of Biotechnology and Business Development.
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.
