TypeTransgeneCartagena
SpeciesMus musculus
Strain nameB6(C)-Tg(Col2a1-Ctgf,lacZ)05908-01-2Hatt
Former Common nameCTGF<Col2a1tg>, B6-Col2a1-Ctgf/lacZ Tg
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell line
Background strain
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Takako Hattori and Masaharu Takigawa, Okayama University Graduate School of Medicine. The transgene was injected into the pronuclei of C57BL/6 fertilized eggs. C57BL/6 and BALB/c mixed background.
Strain descriptionCTGF transgenic mice. The mice express the CTGF/CCN2 (HA-tagged) and lacZ under the control of the Col2a1 promoter/enhancer (6-kb).
Colony maintenanceCarrier x Noncarrier [or Crossing to C57BL/6NCrSlc]
