Gene targeting strategy for B-hSRB1 mice. The exons 2-11 of mouse Scarb1 gene that encode the extracellular domain and partial transmembrane domain of were replaced by human SCARB1 exons 2-11 in B-hSRB1 mice.
Strain specific analysis of SRB1 gene expression in wild type (WT) mice and B-hSRB1 mice by RT-PCR. Mouse Srb1 mRNA was detectable in liver of WT mice (+/+). Human SRB1 mRNA was exclusively detectable in homozygous B-hSRB1 mice (H/H) but not in WT mice (+/+).
