Gene targeting strategy
-
Gene targeting strategy for B-hSOST mice. The exons 1-2 of mouse Sost gene were replaced by human SOST exons 1-2 in B-hSOST mice.
-
mRNA expression analysis
-
Species-specific SOST gene expression analysis in wild-type and humanized B-hSOST mice by RT-PCR. Murine Sost mRNA was detected in heart and testis tissues isolated from wild-type C57BL/6 (+/+) mice, while human SOST mRNA was detected in homozygous B-hSOST (H/H) mice.

Protein expression analysis
-
Species-specific SOST protein expression analysis in wild-type and humanized B-hSOST mice. Heart tissue was isolated from wild-type C57BL/6 (+/+) and homozygous B-hSOST (H/H) mice and analyzed by western blot using a cross-reactive anti-m/hSOST antibody. SOST protein was detected in wild-type and B-hSOST mice.
