Tool Details

  • Tool name: GSTP1GSTP2 KO Mouse
  • Tool type: Experimental models
  • Tool sub-type: Mouse
  • Cancer type: Lung cancer
  • Disease: Cancer; Drug metabolism & toxicity
  • Model: Knock-Out
  • Conditional: No
  • Application: Lung and skin tumourigenesis modeling; drug metabolism; drug toxicity studies
  • Genetic background and cross history: A Gstp1/2 targeting vector, replacing all of the Gstp1 gene and exons 6 and 7 of the Gstp2 gene with a resistance cassette, was transfected into E14Tg2a.IV ES cells. Properly targeted ES cells containing a homologous recombination event were selected, cloned, and injected into blastocysts. Chimeric mice were mated with MF1 mice to generate mice heterozygous for GSTP1/2 knockout. Heterozygous mice were interbred to generate mice homozygous for GSTP1/2 knockout.
  • Zygosity: Homozygous
  • Description: In vivo study of GSTP1/2 (regulator of protein synthesis/degradation) knockout in tumourigenesis, drug metabolism and toxicity; disease model for drug metabolism and toxicity; tumourigenesis model (skin, lung) (chemically induced)
  • Research area: Cancer; Genetics

  • For Research Use Only
