TypeTargeted MutationCartagena
SpeciesMus musculus
Strain nameICR;Cg-Hsf4<tm1Anak>
Former Common nameHSF4KO
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell lineTT2 [(C57BL/6NCrlj x CBA/JNCrlj)F1]
Background strain
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Mitsuaki Fujimoto and Akira Nakai, Yamaguchi University in 2004. TT2 ES cells(C57BL/6 x CBA F1 origin)were used. Mice were backcrossed to ICR.
Strain descriptionHsf4 (heat shock transcription factor 4) knockout mice. Homozygous mutants display caratacts.
Colony maintenance
References
HSF4 is required for normal cell growth and differentiation during mouse lens development.
