Primary Identifier | MGI:2176227 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Recombinase | Gene | Tg(Ins2-cre)25Mgn |
Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x DBA)F2 | Is Recombinase | true |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | This transgene expresses Cre recombinase with a human growth hormone polyadenylation signal under the control of the rat insulin promoter (Ins2), which is active in pancreatic beta cells and in neurons of the hypothalamus. 9 copies of the transgene are estimated to be present. Transgene insertion occurred on Chr 7, causing a 17400 bp duplication. |
