description | Transgenic line 6 showed the strongest cardiac transgene expression and was used for analysis. |
molecularNote | The transgene consists of a rat Myh6 promoter and a tetracycline transactivator sequence. Transgene expression in cardiac tissue was confirmed by Northern blot analysis. 2.9 kb of rat Myh6 promoter sequences directs transgene expression in the heart starting at embryonic day E7.5. |
