Assay
Reference: J:164071 Hirst CE, et al., Expression from a betageo gene trap in the Slain1 gene locus is predominantly associated with the developing nervous system. Int J Dev Biol. 2010;54(8-9):1383-8
Assay type: In situ reporter (knock in)
MGI Accession ID: MGI:6360482
Gene symbol: Slain1
Gene name: SLAIN motif family, member 1
Reporter: lacZ
Direct Detection
Assay notes: Authors used two lines Slain1<Gt(XG385)Byg> or Slain1<Gt(XG752)Byg>. Authors indicate that "a candidate primer approach was performed to characterise the exact site of transgene integration, which indicated that both XG385 and XG752 have the same insertion point, suggesting they are sister clones." The allele used in this assay was not detailed; annotations have been made to Slain1<Gt(XG385)Byg>.
