• Mutation details: The symbol represents a double transgene. In one transgene, a rat insulin I promoter drives the expression of a rat catalase cDNA. Northern blot analysis and immunohistochemistry detected expression of this transgene in pancreatic beta cells. A second transgene that expresses tyrosinase under control of the tyrosinase promoter was coinjected with the first transgene, and apparently cosegregated. (J:59725)
