Transgene
description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Humanized sequence, Inserted expressed sequence)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(Thy1-APP)3Somm expresses 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsA mouse Thy1 promoter and a human APP751 cDNA sequence carrying the Swedish double mutation K670N and M671L found in Alzheimer's disease patients was used for the transgene. In situ hybridization analysis of brain sections from transgenic animals showed the highest levels of transgene expression in the neocortex and hippocampus. (J:44603)
