A new method of genotyping MDX 4CV mice by PCR-RFLP analysis.

Muscle & Nerve 2017 September
INTRODUCTION: The mdx4cv mouse is a common model to study Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The most used methodology to identify the genotype of these mice is Sanger DNA sequencing.

METHODS: Here, we provide a simple, cost-effective alternative approach to identify the wild-type, heterozygous, or homozygous/hemizygous genotypes of these mice, using commonly available laboratory equipment and reagents.

RESULTS: Our technique exploits a restriction fragment length polymorphism that is generated by the point mutation found in exon 53 of mdx4cv mice.

CONCLUSIONS: This technique can benefit laboratories that require complex breeding strategies involving mdx4cv mice. Muscle Nerve 56: 522-524, 2017.
