  Organism	Driver Gene	Note
  mouse	Calca (MGI:2151253)

• Mutation details: A cre/ERT2 fusion construct followed by an FRT flanked PGK neo selection cassette was inserted into exon 2 at the ATG translational start site. The selection cassette was subsequently removed by crossing properly targeted mice to mice expressing flp recombinase. (J:190366)
