R574

R574 is a designation that can refer to several different entities, most notably a specific strain of laboratory mouse and a particular road in the United Kingdom.

In the realm of scientific research, R574 refers to a genetically modified strain of laboratory mouse. These mice are often used in studies investigating specific genetic pathways or disease models. The precise genetic modification varies depending on the research purpose, but typically involves altered gene expression or the introduction of foreign genetic material. Researchers utilize R574 mice to observe the effects of these genetic changes on physiology, behavior, and disease progression, contributing to a better understanding of biological processes and potential therapeutic interventions.

In the United Kingdom, R574 is a road designation. Specifically, it refers to a stretch of road located in the county of Oxfordshire. This designation is part of the national road numbering system managed by National Highways. Like other numbered roads in the UK, R574 serves a local or regional transportation function, connecting various communities and facilitating the movement of traffic. Its exact route and significance are determined by its location and the infrastructure it is part of within the broader road network.
