Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Constitutively active, Inserted expressed sequence, Null/knockout)

• Mesp2^{tm17.1(VP16/Rbpj)Ysa} expresses 1 gene
  Knock-in expresses:
  

  Organism	Expressed Gene	Note
  mouse	Rbpj (MGI:96522)

• Mutation details: The entire gene was replaced with a fusion of the viral coactivator VP16 activation domain and Rbpj, a floxed neo cassette, and a poly A tail. Cre mediated recombination removed the neo cassette. This allele expresses a constitutively active form of Rbpj. Whole mount in situ hybridization analysis confirmed the absence of Mesp2 expression in E11.5 homozygous embryos. (J:167045)
