description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Recombinase)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mex3atm2.1(cre/ERT2)Ebat expression driven by 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsA cassette bearing a Cre-ERT2/bGH polyA was inserted in frame with the mouse Mex3a start codon in exon 1. The neomycin cassette was removed via FLP-mediated recombination in the germline. This allele differs from Mex3atm1.1(cre/ERT2)Ebat in that no td-tomato reporter gene is included. (J:329187)
