Figure 1. Genotypic and phenotypic characterization of PU/ER(T) mice. (A) Schematic illustration of the PU/ER(T) targeting vector map that includes the vector, the PU.1 locus, and the targeted PU.1 mutant allele generated by homologous recombination. The coding sequence for the PU/ER(T) transgene is knocked into the WT PU.1 loci (exon 1 harboring the nuclear localization signal sequence) as illustrated. Double-headed arrow corresponds to the sequence used as a probe for Southern hybridization that encompasses a part of exon 1 its 5′ sequence. The restriction sites are indicated as E1, EcoRI; H3, HindIII. (B) Southern blot analysis of WT, homozygote [PU/ER(T)+/+], and heterozygote [PU/ER(T)+/−] fetal liver genomic DNA that designates the location of the 8.3-kb WT, 8.3- and 5.60-kb PU/ER(T)+/−, and 5.6-kb PU/ER(T)+/+ bands. (C) Flow cytometry analysis of day 14 ± 1 FLC suspension from PU/ER(T)+/− mice. Numbers in the bottom right quadrates indicate percentage of cells carrying the CD 11b surface antigen. Data are representative of 3 individual measurements.
