Development of pMTR1 plasmid-based transgenic mice model for studying gene mutation in vivo / 第二军医大学学报

Objective: To establish C57BL/6 transgenic mice lineages containing pMTR1 plasmids as an efficient animal model for studying gene mutation in vivo . Methods: The linearized pMTR1 DNAs, constructed by molecular cloning, were injected into 572 fertilized eggs of C57BL/6 mice by microinjection. The manipulated embryos were transferred into the oviducts of 45 pseudopregnant mice respectively, from which 35 offsprings were obtained. The genomic DNAs of these offsprings were analyzed with PCR and genomic Southern blotting. Four mice whose genomes integrated with copies of intact pMTR1 vectors were chosen as founders to establish transgenic mice lineages. The recovery of pMTR1 plasmid were conducted on the genomic DNAs of F1 or F2 transgenic offsprings. Results: It was showed that intact and functional pMTR1 plasmid could be efficiently recovered from the genomic DNAs of these mice. Conclusion: (1) The transgenic mouse lineages containing copies of a stably integrated pMTR1 plasmid is established. (2) The transgenic mice are suitable models for studying gene mutation in vivo .
