  (MGI:107606)

• Mutation details: Sequence encoding residues 1 through 436 of human nuclear sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c (SREBF1c) was adjoined to 5.4 kb of the mouse adipose-specific enhancer/promoter of aP2. SREBF1c sequence encoding the membrane-attachment domain was not included in the construct, permitting the expressed component to enter the nucleus without a requirement for proteolysis. (J:50770)
