B-NDG knockout mice

• Autosomal recessive, single nucleotide polymorphism with Prkdc gene on chromosome 16
• Coat: Albino
• Common gamma chain gene (II2rg) interrupted
• Deficiency in cytokine signaling
• Deficient in T and B cells
• High humanization capability
• Lacks functional receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21
• Lacks NK cells
• Severe lymphocyte development impairment

Origin:

The B-NDG model is a single knockout mouse with an ultra immunodeficient phenotype. The model was generated by Biocytogen by deleting the IL2rg gene from NOD-scid mice.

Prkdc (protein kinase DNA-activated catalytic) null scid mutation is characterized by significantly deficient of functional T cells and B cells.

The Common gamma chain gene (IL2RG) deletion results in a lack of functional receptors for IL-2, IL-4, IL-7, IL-9, IL-15, and IL-21, which results in the lack of functional NK cells.

Envigo, now Inotiv, licensed the mouse model from Biocytogen in 2019, where the model had been maintained. The model is albino.
