Allele Type:    Targeted (Inducible, Recombinase) Inducer:    tamoxifen Mutations:    Insertion, Intragenic deletion   Rettm2(cre/ERT2)Ddg expression driven by 1 gene Knock-in expression driven by: Organism Driver Gene Note mouse Ret (MGI:97902)   Mutation details: The first exon of the Ret gene was targeted for homologous recombination. A sequence encoding inducible cre/ERT2, followed by a loxP-flanked AC-Cre Tn5-neo self-excising cassette, was targeted to exon 1 of Ret in ES cells. Following excision of the floxed neo cassette, a line of knockin mice expressing cre/ERT2 was generated. Spatial and temporal expression patterns of the inducible cre recapitulated Ret expression.
