  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Acta2 (MGI:87909)

• Mutation details: A construct containing cre fused to ERT2 followed by an frt flanked PGK-neo cassette was inserted at the initiation codon of Acta2 in a 175 kb mouse BAC. Tamoxifen-induced cre activity was seen in smooth muscle cells. (J:144642)
