molecularNote | The L1L2_Bact_P cassette was inserted at position 83046309 of Chromosome 15 upstream of the critical exon(s) (Build GRCm39). The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by neomycin resistance gene under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exon(s) at position 83046870. The critical exon(s) were thus flanked by loxP sites. A "conditional ready" (floxed) allele can be created by flp recombinase expression in mice carrying this allele and subsequent cre expression then excised this critical sequence resulting in a reporter knockout allele.
