molecularNote | A bacterial lacZ gene was inserted into the gene such that the endogenous gene promoter drives expression of beta-galactosidase. RT-PCR analysis detects gene transcript in brain, cortex, subcortical region, cerebellum, brainstem, olfactory bulb, spinal cord, eye, heart, lung, pancreas, kidney, thymus, lymph nodes, bone marrow, skin, gallbladder, urinary bladder, pituitary gland, adrenal gland, salivary gland, skeletal muscle, tongue, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, cecum, testis, epididymis, seminal vesicle, coagulating gland, prostate gland, ovaries, uterus and white fat. Beta-galactosidase expression from this allele is detectable in brain. In wholemount staining lacZ expression is detectable in olfactory bulb, cortex, thalamus, hypothalamus and cerebellum. On coronal sections lacZ expression is detectable in cortex and hippocampus. |
