Primary Identifier | MGI:3044043 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Reporter | Gene | Tg(CAG-cat,-lacZ)1Brn |
Strain of Origin | FVB/N | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | The transgene comprises the CMV enhancer and chicken beta-actin promoter and the beta-galactosidase coding sequence separated by the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (cat) gene flanked by loxP sites. Beta-galactosidase expression is blocked by presence of the cat gene; when the CAT sequence is excised by Cre recombinase, beta-galactosidase is expressed. |
