Primary Identifier | MGI:3038371 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Transactivator | Gene | Tg(Actb-tTA)1Jzt |
Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x CBA)F1 | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | These transgenic mice express the tetracycline-inhibitable transcription factor (tTA) under the control of beta actin promoter. There is a floxed translational stop codon between the promoter and the tTA coding sequence. The tTA protein is only produced in cells where cre recombinase was expressed. |
