General Information
Strain Name | NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Hrem1/Vst |
Common Name | NPG-Hairless Mice |
Source | Beijing Vitalstar Biotechnology Co., Ltd. |
Background | NOD |
Fur Color | White |
Edited Gene | Hr (Hairless) |
Development
In the severely immunodeficient mice NPG, the mouse Hr gene-specific sgRNA (single-guide RNA) was used to guide Cas9 nuclease to cut the genome, causing DSBs (Double-Stranded Breaks). Through the NHEJ (Non-homologous end Joining) repair pathway, the two cuts were directly ligated, resulting in a frameshift mutation, which achieved the goal of knocking out the Hr gene. Mice of this strain lack T, B, and NK cells, have a functional loss of Hr, and are hairless.
