Primary Identifier | MGI:3053818 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Recombinase | Gene | Tg(Ctsk-cre)1Rda |
Strain of Origin | C57BL/6 or (C57BL/6 x CBA)F1 | Is Recombinase | true |
Is Wild Type | false |
description | Microinjections were done in either C57BL/6 or (CBA x C57BL/6)F1 fertilized oocytes |
molecularNote | In this transgene about 5 kb of the Ctsk gene (nucleotides -3359 - +1660) drives expression of cre recombinase. Cre expression is seen in osteoclasts. The two lines generated (1 and 8) have the same expression pattern. |
