Basic Information
-
Targeting Strategy
-
Gene targeting strategy for humanized B-hGPR35 mice.
Exon 2 of mouse Gpr35 (that encodes the full-length protein) was replaced by human GPR35 exon 2 in B-hGPR35 mice.
-
mRNA Expression of GPR35
-
Strain specific analysis of GPR35 gene expression in wild-type mice and B-hGPR35 mice by RT-PCR. Mouse Gpr35 mRNA was detectable in splenocytes of wild-type mice (+/+). Human GPR35 mRNA was detectable only in homozygous B-hGPR35 but not in wild-type mice.
-
GPR35 Protein Expression
-
Strain specific GPR35 expression analysis in homozygous humanized B-hGPR35 mice by western blot. Stomach, liver and spleen were collected from wild-type mice (+/+) and homozygous B-hGPR35 mice (H/H), and analyzed by western blot with anti-GPR35 antibody. GPR35 was detectable in wild type mice, homozygous humanized B-hGPR35 mice, and MCF-7/RAW264.7 cell line, as the antibody is crossly reactive with GPR35 in human and mice.
