Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Altered localization)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion
• Mutation details: A loxP site was inserted into intron 2 and 3x poly(A) signal sequence was inserted into exon 3 (Ensembl:Bcl2l1-201, GRCm39) immediately downstream of the stop codon, followed by an FRT site flanked neomycin resistance gene cassette and a second loxP site. Downstream, 298bp of intron 2 and a modified exon 3 (where the sequence coding for the C-terminal transmembrane (TM) motif was replaced with sequence coding for the cytochrome b5 endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) signal) were inserted. The neo cassette was removed through Flp-mediated recombination, leaving the endogenous exon 3 floxed. Subsequent Cre-mediated deletion of the endogenous exon 3 results in an allele that expresses the ER-directed peptide. (J:370502)
