Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:134516
• Parent Cell Line: W4 (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: 129S6/SvEvTac

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A targeting vector was designed to insert a loxP-flanked tau-lacZ cassette followed by a neo cassette and then a third loxP site into the 5'-UTR of the targeted gene. Cre mediated recombination then removed the neo cassette leaving the floxed tau-lacZ cassette intact. (J:134516)
