  Cd207

  (MGI:2180021)

• Mutation details: A cre recombinase gene optimized for mammalian codon usage was inserted right after the ATG of exon 1 in a human BAC, which was then injected into oocytes. Insertion of the cre gene was confirmed by PCR on genomic DNA. Cre expression is restricted to all epidermis MHC-II+CD11c+ Langerhans cells but not other CD207 expressing cells. (J:126147)
