Mutation origin

• Germline Transmission: Earliest citation of germline transmission: J:229887
• Parent Cell Line: Not Specified (ES Cell)
• Strain of Origin: C57BL/6NTac

Mutation description

• Allele Type: Targeted (Conditional ready, No functional change)
• Mutation: Insertion
• Mutation details: A targeting vector was designed to insert a loxP site followed by a frt-flanked neomycin resistance (neo) cassette upstream of exon 3, and a second loxP site downstream of exon 5. Flp-mediated recombination removed the selection cassette and left exons 3 through 5 floxed. (J:229887)
