Gdf9, ortholog of human GDF9, encodes an oocyte-restricted TGF-beta ligand that is unusual in signaling through BMPR2 paired with ALK5 to phosphorylate SMAD2 and SMAD3 in granulosa cells, and that forms the potent cumulin heterodimer with BMP15 to amplify cumulus expansion and metabolic support of the oocyte. Follicles arrest at the primary stage without it, so nulls are viable yet female sterile, and human variants cause premature ovarian insufficiency and influence dizygotic twinning rates. Because germline deletion already terminates folliculogenesis, oocyte-specific conditional deletion using Zp3-Cre or Gdf9-Cre is the way to interrogate later antral and periovulatory functions, patient missense knockins separate reduced secretion from impaired heterodimer assembly, and humanization enables recombinant cumulin and antibody assays. Bmp15 is the functional partner rather than a simple backup, and its dosage strongly modifies Gdf9 phenotypes, so compound allelic series are essential for meaningful fertility endpoints.
ingenious targeting laboratory offers 2 distinct Gdf9 (GDF9) catalog mouse models in the BMP/GDF family, featuring conditional knockout and standard knockout. Researchers can order pre-developed catalog lines or request a custom mouse model, including humanized, knockin, and transgenic variations with verified germline transmission.

Order catalog modelA Gdf9 knockout mouse has the Gdf9 gene permanently inactivated, enabling loss of function studies. A Gdf9 conditional knockout (floxed) mouse carries loxP sites flanking a critical exon of Gdf9, allowing Cre recombinase dependent deletion in specific tissues or at specific timepoints.
