Transgene description

• Transgene Type: Transgenic (Recombinase)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Tg(Camk2a-cre)2Szi expression driven by 1 gene
  Transgene expression driven by:
  

  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Camk2a (MGI:88256)

• Mutation details: This transgene expresses Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Camk2a) promoter. Expression of Cre recombinase from this transgene was detected in high levels in the forebrain, moderate levels in the cerebellum and is active by E18.5 in the embryonic cortex. (J:69313)
