description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Null/knockout, Recombinase)
Mutations:    Insertion, Intragenic deletion
 
Mcpt8tm2.1(icre)Hkar expression driven by 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe first exon of the gene was replaced with improved Cre (iCre) and an frt-flanked neomycin-resistance expression cassette (Neor). The selection cassette was removed via FLP-mediated recombination in the germline. (J:269288)
