Establishment of a humanized SCA2 mouse model carrying a CAA disruption preventing CAG repeat expansion in pathogenic genes

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In this study, we established a mouse model in which CAG repeats do not undergo microsatellite instability (MSI) across generations. A humanized ATXN2 cDNA with four CAA interruptions within 73 CAG expansions was inserted into the Rosa26 locus of C57BL/6J mice. At the same time, a 23 CAG control mouse model was also generated.
