description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(Rr596*-GH1)12Mrub expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe transgene contains the following elements: a neuron-specific enhancers-containing sequence 9-13 kb upstream of the Pomc gene transcription start site (with the two enhancers Rr279 (nPE1) and Rr280 (nPE2) deleted (585 bp, 172 bp)), the Herpes simplex virus TK gene minimal promoter and the human growth hormone gene gene. The transgene is expressed in neither hypothalamic arcuate neurons nor in pituitary melanotrophs and corticotrophs during embryonic development. (J:97636)
