molecularNote | Homologous recombination inserted a floxed neomycin-thymidine kinase expression cassette downstream of the exon that encodes amino acids 236-258, which is part of the lumenal "stem" domain, and introduced an additional loxP site upstream of the exon. Cre-mediated recombination in ES cells excised the exon, intronic sequences, and the neo-tk sequences, leaving a single loxP site in their place. Functional analyses did not detect enzyme activity in Golgi fractions from tissues from homozygous mutant mice. |
