Mutation
description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Null/knockout, Reporter)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mutation detailsA tau-GFP reporter cassette was inserted just downstream of the endogenous coding sequence to generate bicistronic expression of GFP with this olfactory receptor. An ACN neo cassette was also inserted and self-excised by cre excision in the germline of the male chimera. (J:76148)
