• Pcp2^tm1(cre)Nobs expression driven by 1 gene
  Knock-in expression driven by:
  

  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Pcp2 (MGI:97508)

• Mutation details: Cre recombinase cDNA and a neomycin resistance gene were inserted into the second exon to be expressed by the endogenous locus. Histological staining of mutants demonstrated cre was expressed exclusively in Purkinje cells of cerebellum and in bipolar neurons of retina. (J:98285)
