description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mutation detailsA loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 9. A floxed neomycin resistance was inserted downstream of exon 12. Cre-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette and left exons 9 through 12 floxed. (J:229360)
