BRC No.RBRC00208
TypeWild-derived strain, partially inbred
SpeciesMus spretus
Strain nameM. spretus
Former Common nameM. spretus
H-2 Haplotype
ES Cell line
Background strainSPR2 [Mus spretus]
Appearancewhite-bellied agouti [Aw/Aw , B/B, C/C]
Strain developmentDeposited by Rosemary Elliott, Roswell Park Cancer Institute.
Strain descriptionM. spretus, SPR2 inbred strain, derived from Mus spretus wild mice trapped in Spain and maintained by Roswell Park Cancer Institute as random stock. Mice were introduced to the RIKEN Tsukuba Institute in 1998 from Dr. Verene Chapman. Among them the inbred line has been created. This strain has been reported to be resistant to the development of skin cancer. M.spretus produces sterile F1 males with laboratory strains.
Colony maintenanceSibling x Sibling.
