Gene Affected XPO1: Exportin 1 (also known as chromosomal maintenance 1 (CRM1))
Origin F344/DuCrj Tg rat inoculated with human crm1 genome (BAC)
Strain characteristics human CRM1 (XPO1) is ubiquitously expressed.
Breeding Conditions Normal growing. Although homozygous female Tg rats are fertile, homozygous male Tg rats are infertile. A Study is ongoing to explore the reason.
Genotyping Primer(TGAGGTCAGGAGTTCAGGAT, CTCTGCCTCCTGGGTTCAA), PCR cindition(annealing :69C, extension 15sec, 40 cycle), product size:~150 bp
