There are 6 lines which have different copy numbers (NBRP No.0539-0544). (Jul 8, 2009) Strain characteristics Some rats develop cancer. (Jul 8, 2009) Breeding Conditions The transgenic rats are maintained by crossing the homozygous (sib mating). (Jul 8, 2009) Genotyping References Additional strain information
