  Fgf8	(MGI:99604)

• Mutation details: A cDNA corresponding to an alternate form of human FGF8 (FGF8b) was ligated to an enhanced rat probasin promoter and followed by an SV40 polyadenylation signal. In addition to being detected in the anterior, dorsolateral, and ventral regions of the prostate, transgenic transcript was detected in the ductus defrens, seminal vesicle, and epididymus. (J:78918)
