Caption Generation of the Sirt6tm2.1Cxd and Sirt6tm2.2Cxd alleles. A-C, targeted disruption of Sirt6 in mice. The Sirt6 targeting construct contains three loxP sites, one in intron 1 (LoxP3) and two flanked a neo gene (LoxP1 and P2) (A). Homologous recombination in embryonic stem (ES) cells can generate two types of mutant ES cells, i.e. mutant-1 that loses the third loxP site (B) and mutant-2 that maintains the third loxP site (C). Mutant-1 results in the Sirt6tm2.1Cxd allele. Exons 2 and 3 are deleted by crossing with a Tg(EIIa-cre)C5379Lmgd (EIIa-Cre) mouse and this generates the Sirt6tm2.2Cxd allele.
