THE BOARD ALLOCATED 4% OF THE THREE YEAR AVERAGE VALUE OF DONOR-DESIGNATED ENDOWMENT BALANCES TO SUPPORT THE DESIGNATED PROGRAMS. ALL EARNINGS ON DONOR ENDOWMENTS ESTABLISHED TO PROVIDE GENERAL SUPPORT FOR THE LABORATORY AS APPROVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES WERE RETAINED IN THE ENDOWMENT.

ORGANIZATION'S MISSION FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 THE MISSION OF THE LABORATORY IS TO DISCOVER PRECISE GENOMIC SOLUTIONS FOR DISEASE AND EMPOWER THE GLOBAL BIOMEDICAL COMMUNITY IN THE SHARED QUEST TO IMPROVE HUMAN HEALTH. TO ACCOMPLISH THIS MISSION THE LABORATORY 1) CONDUCTS BASIC BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH TO INCREASE THE KNOWLEDGE OF DEVELOPMENT, GROWTH, REPRODUCTION, PHYSIOLOGICAL, AND GENETICALLY DETERMINED AILMENTS THROUGH RESEARCH WITH GENETICALLY DEFINED EXPERIMENTAL ANIMALS; 2) CONDUCTS TRANSLATIONAL BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH TO IDENTIFY THE GENOMIC BASIS FOR HUMAN DISEASE, PROMOTE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF MORE PRECISE, TARGETED THERAPIES, AND OFFER CUTTING EDGE GENOMIC DIAGNOSTICS TO THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY; 3) TRAINS AND EDUCATES SCIENTISTS, PHYSICIANS, AND OTHER PROFESSIONALS IN THESE AREAS; AND 4) PROMOTES SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY THROUGH THE PROVISION OF MOUSE MODELS OF HUMAN DISEASE AND THE PROVISION OF RESEARCH AND CLINICAL SERVICES TO THE GLOBAL SCIENTIFIC AND MEDICAL COMMUNITY. THE LABORATORY ALSO WORKS TO ACCELERATE THE TRANSLATION OF DISCOVERIES MADE IN BASIC RESEARCH TO TREATMENTS FOR HUMAN DISEASE.
PROGRAM SERVICES FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A-4C 4A. GENETIC RESOURCES AND SERVICES ACCOMPLISHMENTS JAX PROVIDES THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY WITH MOUSE GENETIC RESOURCES, RELATED TECHNOLOGIES, AND INFORMATION THAT SUPPORTS THEIR USE. THIS INCLUDES CONDUCTING PEER-REVIEWED, RESOURCE-GENERATING RESEARCH AND MANAGING THE MOUSE REPOSITORY, A COLLECTION OF NEARLY 7,000 UNIQUE STRAINS, MANY OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE ONLY FROM JAX. JAX DEVELOPS MOUSE MODELS FOR HUMAN DISEASE, BEGINNING WITH DISCOVERIES OF SPONTANEOUS MUTANTS FROM JAX PRODUCTION COLONIES AND INCLUDING THE OPTIMIZATION OF MODELS ACQUIRED BY THE REPOSITORY. THIS EFFORT INCLUDES ENGINEERING NEW MODELS FOR OUR OWN HYPOTHESIS-DRIVEN RESEARCH. DURING 2013 THE LABORATORY WORKED ON 74 PROJECTS (34 TARGETED, 40 TRANSGENIC) TO CREATE MODELS FOR ALS, BIM1, CMAH DEFICIENCY, DRAVET SYNDROME, OROFACIAL-CLEFTING, MPS1, PARKINSON'S DISEASE, RETT SYNDROME, AND X-LINKED SMA. JAX HAS PILOT STUDIES TO HUMANIZE LARGE SEGMENTS OF THE MOUSE GENOME (10S TO 100S OF KILOBASE PAIRS, KBP). MODELING A DISEASE-RELATED DELETION POLYMORPHISM WITHIN A HUMAN LEUKEMIA GENE AS A TEST CASE, JAX SCIENTISTS ARE MOVING A 25-KBP SEGMENT OF HUMAN DNA INTO THE MOUSE GENOME USING THREE METHODS. METHOD I HARNESSES HOMOLOGOUS RECOMBINATION (HR), THE NATURAL BIOLOGICAL PROCESS BY WHICH CELLS REPAIR DNA DAMAGE. METHOD II MAKES USE OF CERTAIN ENZYMES (FOUND IN BAKER'S YEAST AND PARTICULAR BACTERIAL VIRUSES) THAT ARE CAPABLE OF SITE-SPECIFIC RECOMBINATION (SSR). METHOD III, A POTENTIAL JAX INNOVATION, WILL ATTEMPT TO TRIGGER RECOMBINATION USING SHORT, LINEAR DNA BRIDGING MOLECULES (DNAB). NO MATTER THE METHOD, EACH APPROACH AIMS TO PLACE HUMAN DNA INTO THE LARGER MOUSE GENOMIC CONTEXT; FIRST, WITHIN A BACTERIAL CARRIER; NEXT, IN MOUSE EMBRYONIC STEM CELLS; AND ULTIMATELY, IN LIVE MOUSE STRAINS. ONCE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE OTHER CANCER-RELATED GENES, THE BROADER GOAL IS TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC SCIENTIFIC RESOURCE FOR THE STUDY OF THE HEALTHY/PATHOLOGICAL ACTIVITIES OF HUMAN GENES AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THERAPEUTICS, IN A WHOLE ANIMAL CONTEXT. THE MOUSE MUTANT RESOURCE (MMR) IS THE JACKSON LABORATORY'S PRIMARY REPOSITORY FOR THE ACQUISITION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF MICE CARRYING SPONTANEOUS, DISEASE-CAUSING MUTATIONS. A PRIMARY GOAL FOR THE MMR OVER THE PAST YEAR WAS TO INCREASE THE RATE OF IDENTIFYING CAUSATIVE MUTATIONS IN MMR STRAINS USING THE LATEST GENOMIC TECHNOLOGIES. THE NUMBER OF CAUSATIVE MUTATIONS IDENTIFIED IN THE MMR WAS 21 THROUGH THE FIRST HALF OF 2013. AS AN EXAMPLE, A MUTANT STRAIN OF SPECIAL INTEREST THIS YEAR IS "JAGGED TAIL LIKE" (JGL). THE JGL IS A SPONTANEOUS, RECESSIVE MUTATION THAT AROSE IN BALB/CBYJ. AFFECTED MALE MICE ARE INFERTILE DUE TO GERM CELL DEPLETION AND BOTH SEXES HAVE MILD SKELETAL DEFECTS. THE MUTATION WAS MAPPED TO A ~12 MB REGION ON CHROMOSOME 5 AND EXOME SEQUENCING REVEALED A NONSENSE MUTATION IN KNTC1 (KINETOCHORE ASSOCIATED 1), WHICH ENCODES THE MAMMALIAN HOMOLOG OF ROD, A PROTEIN THAT IS PART OF THE KINETOCHORE AND IS REQUIRED FOR RECRUITMENT OF DYNEIN. THIS IS THE FIRST REPORTED MOUSE MUTATION IN THIS GENE. A SECOND NOTABLE NOVEL STRAIN DISCOVERY THIS YEAR IS NEW MUTANT 3579. THIS RECESSIVE SPONTANEOUS MUTATION CAUSES NEUROLOGICAL, METABOLIC AND SKIN PHENOTYPES THAT ARE SIMILAR TO CUTIS-LAXA. EXOME SEQUENCING REVEALED A MUTATION IN PYCR2, WHICH IS ONE OF THREE GENES NECESSARY FOR PROLINE BIOSYNTHESIS. ROB BURGESS' LABORATORY, IN COLLABORATION WITH MMR STAFF, RECENTLY SUBMITTED A MANUSCRIPT ON THIS NOVEL STRAIN, ENTITLED "PYCR2 MUTATIONS LEAD TO MILD NEUROPATHY, SKIN PHENOTYPES, AND METABOLIC CHANGES IN MICE". THIS IS THE FIRST REPORT OF A MOUSE MUTATION IN PYCR2, AS WELL AS THE FIRST REPORT ASSOCIATING PYCR2 WITH CUTIS-LAXA. WHILE JAX DEVELOPS NEW MOUSE MODELS IN HOUSE, THE REPOSITORY'S MAJOR SOURCE OF NEW MOUSE STRAINS IS THE STRAIN ACQUISITION PROGRAM. ACQUISITION ADDED APPROXIMATELY 600 STRAINS IN 2013, INCREASING THE SIZE OF THE JAX COLLECTION TO >7,250 INDIVIDUAL MOUSE LINES. A KEY COMPONENT OF THE ACQUISITION PROCESS IS THE WORK DONE BY A TEAM OF CURATORS WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR INTERACTING WITH DONATING LABORATORIES TO OBTAIN TECHNICAL INFORMATION AND ARRANGE IMPORTATION. CURATORS ASSIMILATE INFORMATION FROM DONATING RESEARCHERS AND PUBLISHED LITERATURE TO COMPOSE A "USER MANUAL" FOR EACH LINE. THIS INFORMATION IS ADDED TO THE JAXMICE CATALOGUE FOR USE BY THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY. JAX OFFERS ONE OF THE MOST EXTENSIVE AND DIVERSE MOUSE RESOURCES IN EXISTENCE, ALLOWING US TO SUPPORT A WIDE ARRAY OF RESEARCH AND TO PRESERVE STRAINS THAT OTHERWISE MIGHT BE LOST. THE JAX CRE REPOSITORY IS AN INTEGRATED EFFORT TO GENERATE, CHARACTERIZE AND DISTRIBUTE CRE DRIVER TOOL STRAINS TO THE SCIENTIFIC COMMUNITY. THESE STRAINS ALLOW SCIENTISTS TO GENERATE PRECISE GENE DELETIONS IN A SPECIFIC ORGAN AT A SPECIFIC TIME. THE JAX CRE REPOSITORY CURRENTLY COMPRISES OVER 300 OF THESE STRAINS THAT COMPLEMENT OUR COLLECTION OF >500 "KNOCKOUT READY" STRAINS. WE EMPLOY A COMPREHENSIVE, HIGH-THROUGHPUT CRE DRIVER STRAIN CHARACTERIZATION PIPELINE, WHICH INCLUDES TWO EMBRYONIC AND TWO POSTNATAL TIME POINTS, TO PROVIDE EXTENDED FUNCTIONAL DATA FOR END USERS. ALL IMAGE AND ANNOTATION DATA IS AVAILABLE THROUGH OUR WEBSITE AND A NEW DATABASE DEVELOPED BY MOUSE GENOME INFORMATICS (MGI) AT JAX, CREPORTAL.ORG. THE CRE REPOSITORY WEBSITE IS ONE OF THE MOST HEAVILY VISITED SECTIONS OF ALL JAX WEBSITES, WITH OVER 120,000 PAGEVIEWS PER YEAR. CHARACTERIZATION DATA WEBPAGES SEE ESPECIALLY HEAVY TRAFFIC, DEMONSTRATING THAT THIS VALUE-ADDED INFORMATION IS BEING ACTIVELY EMPLOYED BY CRE MOUSE USERS. A MAJORITY OF THE STRAINS PRODUCED BY THE KNOCKOUT MOUSE PROJECT (KOMP2) AND INTERNATIONAL PHENOTYPING PROGRAMS CAN BE MODIFIED BY CRE TOOL STRAINS, SO THE LABORATORY IS WORKING TO ALIGN THE JAX CRE REPOSITORY WITH THIS EFFORT. TWO PROJECTS TOWARDS THIS END ARE UNDERWAY. THE FIRST LEVERAGES THE CAPACITY OF THE JAX KOMP2 PHENOTYPING CENTER TO DETERMINE IF POPULAR CRE STRAINS DISPLAY POTENTIALLY CONFOUNDING PHENOTYPES. THIS SET OF STRAINS COMPRISES THOSE WITH HIGH DISTRIBUTION HISTORY AND OTHERS OF SPECIFIC INTEREST. TEN STRAINS HAVE COMPLETED TESTING AND DATA ANALYSIS IS UNDERWAY. THE SECOND PROJECT IS BACKCROSSING AN OVERLAPPING SET TO C57BL/6NJ, PROVIDING A COMPLEMENTARY RESOURCE ON THE SAME GENETIC BACKGROUND AS THE KOMP2 RESOURCE. SIXTEEN STRAINS ARE IN PROGRESS,AND ARE 86%-100% CONGENIC ON THE C57BL/6NJ BACKGROUND, INCLUDING FIVE THAT ARE COMPLETE AND BEING REDERIVED INTO THE REPOSITORY FOR DISTRIBUTION. AS PART OF OUR FACEBASE CONSORTIUM PROJECT, WE ARE GENERATING 15 CRE DRIVER LINES FOR THE CRANIOFACIAL RESEARCH COMMUNITY OVER FIVE YEARS AND WILL BE THE REPOSITORY FOR THESE AND OTHER MODELS GENERATED BY THE CONSORTIUM. THESE STRAINS WILL ALLOW OTHER INVESTIGATORS TO DELETE GENES IN SPECIFIC PARTS OF THE DEVELOPING FACE AND PALATE, ALLOWING DEEPER UNDERSTANDING OF THE GENETIC MECHANISMS OF THESE BIRTH DEFECTS. FOUR NEW CRE DRIVER STRAINS ARE CHARACTERIZED AND PUBLICLY AVAILABLE, AND SEVERAL MORE (BOTH KNOCK-IN AND TRANSGENIC ALLELES) WILL BE PUBLIC THIS YEAR. OUR CHARACTERIZATION SCHEME BUILDS UPON THE PLATFORM DESCRIBED ABOVE AND INCORPORATES ADDITIONAL TIME POINTS AND TISSUES SPECIFIC TO THE TARGET STRUCTURES. OVERALL, THIS PROJECT PROVIDES A MODEL FOR ADDITIONAL CRE DRIVER STRAIN PROJECTS TO ADD TO THE OVERALL CRE REPOSITORY. KNOCKOUT MOUSE PROJECT (KOMP) - JAX DEVELOPED AN EXTENSIVE GENE TARGET LIST OF 1168 GENES WITH RECOMMENDATIONS FROM NEARLY ALL OF THE JAX FACULTY AND A NUMBER OF EXTERNAL COLLABORATORS. THE GENE LIST WAS ASSEMBLED TO SERVE THE STRATEGIC INTERESTS OF NUMEROUS RESEARCH PROGRAMS, AND ALLOWS US TO FOCUS ON GENERATING MICE WITH GENE DELETIONS THAT WILL BE OF IMMEDIATE INTEREST TO RESEARCHERS. KOMP PARTNERS AROUND THE WORLD COORDINATED CLOSELY WITH EACH OTHER ON THE PROGRAM'S OVERALL TARGETED GENE LIST, TO MAXIMIZE IMPACT WHILE MINIMIZING DUPLICATION OF EFFORT. AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE KOMP PROGRAM IS TO DEVELOP NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND APPROACHES THAT REDUCE COSTS, SPEED DELIVERY OF STRAINS AND IMPROVE THE ULTIMATE IMPACT OF THE PROJECT. IN COLLABORATION WITH LABORATORY, KOMP HAS HELPED VALIDATE THE "PERFECT HOST" STERILE BLASTOCYST TECHNOLOGY THROUGH SIDE-BY-SIDE COMPARISONS WITH KOMP CLONES. BASED ON THESE SUCCESSES, WE HAVE BEGUN PRODUCTION SCALE USE OF THE PERFECT HOST FOR KOMP OPERATIONS. TO REDUCE THE ENORMOUS COST OF SCREENING MICE FOR GERMLINE TRANSMISSION, WE HAVE EMPLOYED "ZINC FINGER NUCLEASE" (ZFN) TECHNOLOGY TO GENERATE AN ALBINO VERSION OF THE C57BL/6NJ STRAIN. THE RARE AND ORPHAN DISEASE CENTER - (RODC) BRINGS TOGETHER GLOBAL MOUSE RESOURCES AND THE EXPERTISE OF SCIENTISTS AT THE JACKSON LABORATORY TO ACCELERATE RESEARCH AND DRUG DISCOVERY FOR RARE AND ORPHAN DISEASES. WE PARTNER WITH FOUNDATIONS, PHARMACEUTICAL AND BIOTECH COMPANIES, AND OTHER SCIENTISTS WORLDWIDE TO FACILITATE RESEARCH INTO TREATMENTS OF THESE LESS COMMON DISEASES. WE ENGINEER NEW MODELS AND ENHANCE EXISTING MODELS THROUGH GENETIC STANDARDIZATION AN
