Transgene description

Transgene Type:		Transgenic (Recombinase)
Mutation:		Insertion
		Mutation details: The transgenic construct contained the Myh7 3' untranslated region, the Myhca promoter, Myhca noncoding exons 1 and 2, and the exon 3 splice acceptor site 180 bp upstream and driving the expression of the cre recombinase sequence. The Myhca promoter drives expression in cardiac tissue. (J:67908)
