Strain Description
This strain is a uricase-deficient mouse line generated by knocking out the mouse Uox gene. Due to impaired uricase synthesis, these mice spontaneously exhibit a hyperuricemic phenotype. Heterozygous Uox KO mice are viable and fertile. Homozygous Uox KO mice require allopurinol or similar drugs for postnatal survival.
