SpeciesMus musculus
Strain name129.129P2-Aldh2<tm1Kaw>
Former Common nameAldh2 KO mice
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell lineE14 [129P2/OlaHsd]
Background strain
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Kyoko Kitagawa, University of Occupational and Environmental Health in 1998. E14 ES cells were used. The mutant mice were backcrossed to 129 over 7 times.
Strain descriptionAldh2 gene knockout mice. A termination codon and a neomycin selection cassette was inserted into exon 3 of Aldh2 gene.
