Primary Identifier | MGI:3522673 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Reporter | Gene | Tg(KRT18-lacZ)1Jh |
Strain of Origin | C57BL/6 and SJL | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
description | This transgene is representative of many lines and embryos created; these were not distinguished in the original reference. |
molecularNote | The transgene contains the promoter, first intron and 5' untranslated region of the human keratin 18 gene and the 34-bp alpha mosaic virus transcriptional enhancerdriving the expression of a beta-galactosidase gene that contains an SV40 large T antigen nuclear localization signal. X-gal staining analysis indicated that expression occurs in the airway epithelium of transgenic mice. |
