Description
This invention is a mouse line in which we disrupted the gene for FKBP52, a protein component of steroid receptor complexes. The animals are reproductively compromised. These animals can be helpful in screening for environmental compounds and drugs that might bind FKBP52 and alter FKBP52-dependent processes. Of particular interest will be compounds that may promote defects in sexual differentiation and development.
