Caption Generation of the Ghsrtm1Mws allele. Bacterial artificial chromosome for Ghsr was isolated, and targeting vectors in which exon 1 of the Ghsr locus was precisely deleted and replaced with an in-frame lacZ reporter gene and neomycin-selectable marker were electroporated into embryonic stem cells. Correctly targeted embryonic stem cells, as well as eventual heterozygotes and homozygous mice derived from these embryonic stem cells, were identified by a real-time PCR-based loss-of-native-allele assay. After germ-line transmission was established, F1 heterozygous mice were backcrossed to C57BL6/J to generate N3 breeding heterozygote pairs that were used to generate homozygous wild-type (WT) and mutant mice used in these experiments. Deletion of Ghsr was also confirmed by the absence of exogenous ghrelin-induced feeding response.
