B6.Cg-Col1a1tm1(CAG-Sirt1)Dsin/Mmjax

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250201

The SIRT1STOP (or SIRT1-Tg flox-STOP-flox) targeted allele has a floxed-STOP cassette and mouse sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) cDNA sequence inserted into the 3' UTR of the collagen A1 (Col1a1) locus. When bred to mice that express Cre recombinase, offspring will have the floxed-STOP cassette deleted in the cre-expressing tissue(s), resulting in Sirt1 overexpression in Col1a1-expressing cells. These SIRT1STOP (or SIRT1-Tg flox-STOP-flox) mice may be useful for generating conditional mutations for studying the role of sirtuin NAD+-deacetylases in aging, cancer, cellular stress resistance, genomic stability, IGF1 pathways, autoimmunity, inflammation, T cell tolerance, energy metabolism, neurodegeneration, insulin resistance, and diabetes.

Molecular Note
The SIRT1-Tg flox-STOP-flox construct was designed to insert (from 5' to 3') an FRT site, a CMV-IE enhancer/chicken beta-actin/rabbit beta-globin hybrid promoter (CAG; from the pCAGGS vector), a loxP-flanked transcriptional STOP cassette, the mouse sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) cDNA sequence, and a PGK-hygro-polyA sequence (with a second FRT site between the PGK and hygro) into the 3' UTR of the mouse collagen A1 (Col1a1) locus.
