Allele Type:    Targeted (Inducible, Null/knockout, Recombinase) Inducer:    tamoxifen Mutation:    Insertion   Nkx3-1tm4(cre/ERT2)Mms expression driven by 1 gene Knock-in expression driven by: Organism Driver Gene Note mouse Nkx3-1 (MGI:97352)   Mutation details: A cre/ERT2-polyA sequence was inserted at the translation start site of the Nkx3-1 gene, thus generating a null allele. The targeting vector also contained a self-excising ACE-cre/PolII-neo selection cassette for positive selection and a PGK-tk (thymidine kinase) cassette for negative selection. The vector was transfected into TC-1 ES cells which were used to generate chimeras. Excision of the selection cassette occurred by passage through the male germline. (J:153425)
