additional information | knockout mice containing the LSL-TPP1 transgene in the ROSA26 locus are referred to as TgLSL-TPP1, 5'-integration of TgLSL-TPP1 into the ROSA26 locus. A cloned PCR-amplified region of ROSA26 corresponds to nucleotides 113076032 to 113077227 of Mus musculus strain C57BL/6J chromosome 6 (GRCm38.p4). Method development for creation of mice expressing cre/ERT2 transgenes, transgenic mouse with inducible TPP1 to benchmark treatment approaches, evaluation of treatment at different stages of disease. A construct containing a loxP-flanked stop cassette inserted between the chicken-actin promoter and a sequence encoding murine TPP1 (TgLSL-TPP1) is integrated into the ROSA26 locus in mice by homologous recombination. Tested in both transfected CHO cells and in transgenic mice, the TgLSL-TPP1 does not express TPP1 until cre-mediated removal of the LSL cassette, which results in supraphysiological levels of TPP1 activity. Two of the four cre/ERT2 driver transgenes have significant cre activity in the absence of tamoxifen, while cre-mediated recombination cannot be induced by tamoxifen by two others. The germline-recombined mouse transgenic that constitutively overexpresses TPP1 allow long-term evaluation of overexposure to the enzyme and in cell culture, the inducible transgene may be a useful tool in biomarker discovery projects | Mus musculus |

malfunction | late-infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is a fatal neurodegenerative disease of children caused by mutations resulting in loss of activity of the lysosomal protease, tripeptidyl peptidase 1 (TPP1), gene therapy studies on the LINCL mouse using Tpp1-targeted mouse models for LINCL that accurately recapitulate the human disease with locomotor deficits and a reduced lifespan. Tpp1-/- mice show signs of disease progression but death typically occurs suddenly (possibly from disease-related seizures) when feeding and grooming behaviors remained normal and before they become moribund. No gender-specific effects in life-span or other phenotypes of the LINCL mouse model are observed | Mus musculus |
