description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Inducible, Inserted expressed sequence, Reporter)
Inducer:    doxycycline/tetracycline
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Mutation detailsAn expression cassette containing a tetracycline responsive element that drives inducible expression of a channelrhodopsin-2 (with an E123T/T159C mutation) and EYFP fusion was inserted 800 bp downstream of the endogenous polyadenylation sequence. Flp-mediated recombination removed an FRT-flanked neo cassette. (J:211265)
