B6.129S6-Eef1a1tm1Klan/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07251069

Common Name: Eef1a1LSL.NS3/4.TRAP.iPKR; iPKR; Eef1a1-LSL-A2GA5
iPKR knock-in/knock-out mice were developed for cell type-specific drug-inducible protein synthesis inhibition (ciPSI). They are a spatiotemporally precise chemogenetic tool for rapidly and reversibly blocking cell-autonomous protein synthesis via phosphorylation of eIF2α (EIF2A). Expression of Eef1a1 is knocked out by the targeted insertion and homozygotes are not viable.

Molecular Note
The targeting cassette introduced into intron 1 a floxed stop cassette, a recombinant nonstructural protein recognition site NS3/4A (allows for chemical inhibition with asunaprevir), self-cleaving 2A proteinase sequence, ribosomal localized EGFP reporter gene (EGFP/L10), self-cleaving 2A proteinase sequence, and an inducible kinase domain from an RNA-activated protein kinase (iPKR).
