Gene targeting strategy

Gene targeting strategy for B-hPPBP/hPF4 mice. The exons 1-3 of mouse Ppbp gene that encode the full-length protein and the exons 1-3 of mouse Pf4 gene that encode the full-length protein including the non-coding region between Ppbp gene and Pf4 gene were replaced by human PPBP exons 1-3 and human PF4 exons 1-3 in B-hPPBP/hPF4 mice.

Protein expression analysis

Species-specific PPBP protein expression analysis in wild-type and humanized B-hPPBP/hPF4 mice. Serum was collected from wild-type C57BL/6 (+/+) and homozygous B-hPPBP/hPF4 (H/H) mice and analyzed by ELISA using species-specific anti-PPBP kits. Murine PPBP protein was detected in wild-type mice, while human PPBP protein was detected in B-hPPBP/hPF4 mice.
