  Organism	Expressed Gene	Note
  mouse	Ngf (MGI:97321)

• Mutation details: Overexpression of mouse NGF in basal keratinocytes of the epidermis and the outer root sheath of hair follicles using a human K14 (KRT14) promoter. This line expresses Ngf at a high level in stratified epithelium including skin, lining of the oral cavity and forestomach. (J:17131)
