Transgene
origin
Strain of Origin:  (C57BL/6J x DBA/2J)F1
Transgene
description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(Ckmm-Ucp1)1Boud expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe transgene consists of a rat Ucp1 cDNA sequence under the control of a mouse Ckmm promoter, which drove expression in skeletal muscle and heart. An SV40 polyadenylation signal was added to the Ucp1 construct. Transgene expression in heart and muscle tissues was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. (J:80053)

Notes
Two transgenic lines, MCK-UCP1-13 and MCK-UCP1-20, were established. Both lines express the transgene in heart and muscle tissues, with expression levels varying in different muscles that is not consistent between the two lines.
