description
Allele Type:    Targeted (Recombinase)
Mutations:    Insertion, Intragenic deletion
 
Opn4tm1(cre)Sapa expression driven by 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe first 7 exons were replaced with a cassette containing a cre gene, IRES/betaTau, a floxed neo and eYFP gene. No YFP expression was detected in the retina. Cre activity is detected in the retinal ganglion cell layer. (J:137151)
