Strain Description
This strain is a mouse Rho gene humanized model, in which the mouse Rho gene is replaced by the human RHO gene. The protein encoded by the human gene is normally expressed in the mouse. Therefore, the structure and function of the retina of this model are identical to those of wild-type mice, and there is no visual defect. This model can be used to study visual signaling and retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Based on the self-developed technological innovation of TurboKnockout fusion BAC recombination, Cyagen can also provide popular point mutation disease models constructed based on this model. The data shows that B6J-hRHO-P23H mice carrying a human RHO pathogenic mutation constructed based on B6J-hRHO mice exhibit a distinct retinal abnormal phenotype.
Application Area
Research on retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
Research on congenital stationary night blindness (CSNB)
Research on other retinal diseases
