Strain: LEW-Tg(HLA-B*2705m1,B2M)133-1TrgTg/Tg

Symbol: LEW-Tg(HLA-B*2705m1,B2M)133-1TrgTg/Tg
Strain: LEW-Tg(HLA-B*2705m1,B2M)133-1Trg homozygous rat
RGD ID: 738120
Citation ID: RRID:RRRC_00043
Ontology ID: RS:0000490
Also Known As: HLA-B27 transgenic rat; Line133-1; LEW-Tg(HLA-B*2705m1,B2M)133-1Trg; LEW-Tg(HLA-B*2705m1,B2M)133-1Trg^[Tg/Tg]
Type: transgenic
Available Source: Rat Resource and Research Center
Origination: Rat Resource and Research Center
Description: This strain was made by pronuclear injection into Lewis embryos. The embryos were co-injected with DNA fragments containing the HLA-B*2705 human gene (human HLA-B27 gene with Serine replacing Cys67) and the human beta-2-microglobulin gene. Founder 133-1 was selected and carrier animals from this founder were mated and bred to homozygosity. The strain was transferred from Dr. Joel Taurog, University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas to the Rat Resource and Research Center in 2002. The strain has been maintained by sibling mating.
Genetic Status: Homozygous
Coat Color: Albino
Last Known Status: Cryopreserved Embryo; Cryopreserved Sperm (as of 2018-11-20)

RGD Curation Notes
Note Type Note Reference
strain_characteristics This strain develops arthritis and an inflammatory colitis in homozygous rats around 8 months of age. Orchitis develops in both the hemizygous and homozygous males at an early age. Homozygous male rats are sterile by 4 months of age. 731214
strain_life_disease In human the B27 gene product is responsible for spondyloarthropathies suggesting this molecule may contribute to B27-associated disease susceptibility. 731214
strain_reproduction Average gestation period is 22 days with an average of 10 pups per litter. Homozygous males become sterile by 4 months of age. 731214
