UTSD - 0738
Transgenic Mouse Lacking the Gene that Encodes Cytochrome C


Transgenic mice, and resulting cell lines, deficient in cytochrome c were developed and characterized at
UT Southwestern. The result of these efforts were published in Li, et. al. (Cell 101; 389-399, 2000).

In May 2002, a non-exclusive distibution license was entered into between UT Southwestern inventors
(Kang Li, John Shelton, James Richardson, Zhijian Chen, Xiaodong Wang and R. Sanders Williams) and
The Jackson Laboratory, to make available for worldwide distribution to non-profit research institutions,
transgenic mice lacking the gene that encodes cytochrome c. This distribution license requires for-profit
research entities to individually obtain limited use licenses from UT Southwestern prior to receiving mice
from The Jackson Laboratory.

Parties interested in this technology may contact the Office of Technology Development at UT Southwestern
and reference UTSD0738.
