Mutation description

• Allele Type: Endonuclease-mediated (Recombinase)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Ucp1^em1(cre)Chez expression driven by 1 gene
  Knock-in expression driven by:
  

  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Ucp1 (MGI:98894)

• Mutation details: An IRES-Cre was introduced between the coding sequence of exon 6 and the 3'UTR of the Ucp1 gene. To avoid disrupting the polyA signal of Ucp1 expression, a Neo cassette flanked by frt sites was inserted 300 bp downstream of the 3'UTR. (J:283206)
