| Primary Identifier | MGI:3505731 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
| Attribute String | Reporter | Gene | Tg(GadGFP)45704Swn |
| Strain of Origin | FVB/N | Is Recombinase | false |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| description | Homozygous transgenic mice exhibit no apparent physical or behavioral defects. Transgene expression occurs in a specific subpopulation of hippocampal and cortical GABAergic interneurons that express somatostatin. |
| molecularNote | The transgene contains a 5' portion of the mouse Gad1 gene, a GFP open reading frame, and SV40 polyadenylation site sequence. Homozygous transgenic mice express Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP) under the control of the mouse Gad1 gene promoter. |
