Transgene description

• Transgene Type: Transgenic (Inserted expressed sequence)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: The C. elegans fat-1 gene was modified to optimize codon usage for mammalian cells and was expressed in mice under the control of a chicken beta-actin promoter (which allows high-level and broad expression of the transgene in mice). (J:88166)
