Targeting strategy
-
Gene targeting strategy for B-hTFNR2 mice(C).
The exons 2-6 of mouse Tfnr2 gene that encodes the full-length protein was replaced by human TFNR2 exons 2-6 in B-hTFNR2 mice(C). -
Protein expression analysis in T cells
-
Strain specific TNFR2 expression analysis in wild-type and B-hTNFR2 mice(C) by flow cytometry. Splenocytes were collected from BALB/c (+/+) and homozygous B-hTNFR2 mice(C) (H/H) stimulated with anti-mCD3ɛ antibody (7.5μg/mice, stimulation for 24 hours, i.p.), and analyzed by flow cytometry with species-specific TNFR2 antibody. Mouse TNFR2 was detectable in wild-type mice. Human TNFR2 was exclusively detectable in homozygous B-hTNFR2 mice(C).

Summary
-
Protein expression analysis:
Human TNFR2 was exclusively detectable in homozygous B-hTNFR2 mice(C) but not wild-type mice, and mouse TNFR2 was detectable in wild-type mice.
