abstractText | The Four Core Genotypes (FCG) is a mouse model system used to disentangle the function of sex chromosomes and hormones. We report that a copy of a 3.2 MB region of the X chromosome has translocated to the Y(Sry-) chromosome and thus increased the expression of X-linked genes including the single-stranded RNA sensor and autoimmune disease mediator Tlr7. This previously-unreported X-Y translocation complicates the interpretation of studies reliant on C57BL/6J FCG mice. |
