Caption Generation of the reporter strain for strong EGFP expression, Gt(ROSA)26Sortm8(CAG-EGFP)Npa (mR26CS-EGFP). (A) Flipase-recombinase-mediated cassette exchange (Flp-RMCE) into the Gt(ROSA)26Sortm5Npa (modRosa26FRT) locus, replacing the HygR selection cassette in the Gt(ROSA)26Sortm5Npa ES cells with an FRT/FRT wt-flanked sequence in the Flp-RMCE targeting plasmid. The Flp-RMCE targeting plasmid contains the pCAG promoter followed by a LoxP-flanked (floxed) STOP cassette, the EGFP cDNA and a NeoR cassette, flanked as a group by FRT/FRT wt sites. Successfully targeted ES cells were used to generate Gt(ROSA)26Sortm8(CAG-EGFP)Npa mice. After crossing Gt(ROSA)26Sortm8(CAG-EGFP)Npa mice with several Cre mice, ubiquitous or tissue-restricted EGFP reporter expression could be obtained.
