Encoding RALDH2, Aldh1a2 is the mouse ortholog of human ALDH1A2 and the dominant source of embryonic all-trans retinoic acid, oxidizing retinaldehyde within paraxial and lateral plate mesoderm, epicardium, and meninges to establish the posterior-to-anterior retinoid gradient read by RAR and Hox targets. Loss of this single enzyme is not tolerated: germline nulls arrest around midgestation with unlooped heart tubes, absent forelimb buds, shortened trunks, and disrupted hindbrain segmentation, a lethality partially rescuable by maternal retinoic acid supplementation, so timed dietary rescue must be planned into any constitutive line. That embryonic requirement makes conditional floxed alleles the practical design for adult immunology, where dendritic cell and stromal RALDH2 drives gut homing and regulatory T cell induction. Paralogous Aldh1a1 and Aldh1a3 occupy largely nonoverlapping domains and do not rescue the early mesodermal deficit. Pair the flox with tissue-restricted Cre drivers such as Cd11c-Cre or Wt1-Cre when the endpoint is retinoid-dependent cell fate rather than gross morphogenesis.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 1 distinct Aldh1a2 (RALDH2) catalog mouse model in the Retinoic acid axis family, featuring conditional knockout. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.
