  Ins2 (24506)

  Ins2	(MGI:96573)

• Mutation details: This transgene expresses Cre recombinase with a human growth hormone polyadenylation signal under the control of the rat insulin promoter (Ins2), which is active in pancreatic beta cells and in neurons of the hypothalamus. 9 copies of the transgene are estimated to be present. Transgene insertion occurred on Chr 7, causing a 17400 bp duplication. (J:51826)
