| description | The authors indicate that removal of the neomycin cassette by Cre-mediated recombination does not alter gross morphology or lacZ expression pattern. (J:73813) |
| molecularNote | An IRES, lacZ and floxed neomycin resistance cassette were inserted into exon 7 via homologous recombination resulting in disruption of the DNA binding domain. The mutant transcript encodes the first 6 exons of the gene followed by the IRES-lacZ message. The pattern of lacZ expression in mutant animals is similar to that of the endogenous protein. |
