ingenious targeting laboratory designs and generates Itch reporter mouse models to your specification. Quotes return in about 24 hours with documented germline transmission and strict United States QC guidelines.
Scientific design
Itch is a well studied locus in mouse genetics. Allele design follows your phenotype goals and what the published landscape already shows for this gene.
1 existing allele are indexed for Itch, including 1 knockout. Where the published set lacks the modification you need, ingenious targeting laboratory builds that allele with documented germline transmission.
Reporter alleles fuse a detectable marker to endogenous regulation so expression mirrors the native locus. Pre germline characterization confirms signal location before germline transmission.

FAQ
What Itch Reporter mouse models are available?
When Itch Reporter lines are in catalog, we ship from inventory. If your configuration is not listed, we design the allele to order. Common paths include conditional knockout, constitutive knockout, humanized, knockin, and transgenic options, with documented germline transmission and United States QC.
Is Itch knockout embryonic lethal in mice?
It depends on background and allele design. Some Itch germline knockouts are viable. Others need conditional alleles or mixed backgrounds. We review publications and our own experience, then recommend floxed versus null before you commit.
Which Cre driver is best for experiments?
Driver choice depends on onset timing, recombination efficiency, and known leak. We map your organ and cell type to a short list of proven Cre lines, then talk through reporter crosses and controls. We favor drivers with strong community validation for your tissue.
Do you ship live Itch animals?
When catalog lines are live, we ship with health certificates and QC documentation. If your exact combo is not listed, we quote a generation project with cryo or live dispatch depending on cohort timing and geography.
How do I request a quote for Itch?
Use the catalog inquire buttons or the request quote form. Include your allele goal, Cre plan if any, strain background, and cohort size. A PhD led team responds with pricing, milestones, and the fastest path to experimental animals.
