Mutation description

Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change) Mutation: Insertion Mutation details: A loxP site was inserted upstream of exon 1. An FRT-flanked neo cassette with a 3' loxP site was inserted downstream of exon 3. Flp-mediated recombination removed the neo cassette and left exons 1 through 3 floxed. (J:177412)
