| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Streptozotocin (STZ) is a well-known diabetogenic agent that has cytotoxic activities in pancreatic B-cells. It has been reported that inbred mouse strains differ in their susceptibility to the diabetogenic effect of STZ treatment. However, there has been little use of forward genetic approaches to analyze STZ susceptibility. Our analysis using A/J, SM/J and A/J-11SM mice identified the diabetogenic gene to STZ on Chr. 11. We developed Chr. 11 congenic strains from A/J-11SM mice and measured their susceptibility to STZ. Congenic mapping indicated that major locus for STZ susceptibility was present between D11Mit163 (27.7Mb) to D11Mit51 (36.4Mb) on Chr. 11. Exome sequencing analysis in SM/J and A/J mice revealed a non-synonymous coding mutation (A132S) in the Mpg (N-methylpurine-DNA glycosylase) gene suggested this to be the causative gene for STZ susceptibility in the A/J mouse strain.
