SpeciesMus musculus
Strain nameC57BL/6N-Arg1<tm1.1(KikGR)Ksho>
Former Common nameArg1-KikGR
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell lineJM8A3.N1 [C57BL/6N-A<tm1Brd>]
Background strain
Appearance
Strain developmentDeveloped by Tsuneyasu Kaisho, Research Center for Allergy and Immunologuy, RIKEN around 2009.
Strain descriptionArginase 1, ARG1, is an enzyme in urea cycle and generates ornithine and urea from arginine. In type 2 inflammation, ARGI expression is known to be increased in macrophages. ArgI-KikGR mice were generated by knocking a gene encoding a photoconvertible green-to-red fluorescent protein KikGR into the murine ArgI gene locus.
