  Transgene expression driven by:
  

  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Capn8 (MGI:2181366)

• Mutation details: A 3.9 kb promoter of the murine Capn8 gene was inserted into a vector containing a 1.2 kb cre recombinase coding sequence and 2.1 kb of sequence encoding the bovine growth hormone polyadenylation signal. The 7.2 kb linearized fragment was injected into fertilized FVB oocytes. Two founders were obtained. (J:153563)
