| Product description: | Model for preclinical study of anti-MUC1 vaccines/immunotherapies; |
| Alternate name: | ADMCKD, ADMCKD1, Breast carcinoma associated antigen DF3, Breast carcinoma-associated antigen DF3, CA 15-3, CA15 3, CA15 3 antigen, CA15.3, Cancer antigen 15-3, Carcinoma associated mucin, Carcinoma-associated mucin, CD 227, CD227 |
| Conditional description: | Genomic fragment containing complete MUC1 gene and promoter region, enabling tissue-specific MUC1 expression pattern. |
| Genetic background: | A linear genomic fragment, containing the MUC1 gene and promoter, was injected into fertilized embryos (various backgrounds), and implanted into pseudopregnant mice. Transgenic mice were identified by Southern blot, and maintained as homozygotes. |
