Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Null/knockout)
• Mutations: Insertion, Intragenic deletion Vector: L1L2_Bact_P
• Mutation details: The L1L2_Bact_P cassette was inserted at position 175492614 of Chromosome 1 upstream of the critical exon 2 (Build GRCm39). The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by neomycin resistance gene under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exon 2 at position 175493673. The critical exon 2 is thus flanked by loxP sites. Cre expression occur without flp expression generates a reporter knockout mouse.
