description
Transgene Type:    Transgenic (Recombinase)
Mutation:    Insertion
 
Tg(Sim1-cre)1Lowl expression driven by 1 gene
 
Mutation detailsThe cre ATG was inserted via recombineering techniques, into the Sim1 ATG site of a BAC containing 137.1 kb of genomic C57BL/6 Sim1 sequences up to and including exon 8. The inserted cre sequence deleted the first 31 bp of the Sim1 gene. (J:115192)
