Strain of Origin | Not Specified | Is Recombinase | true |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | A transgenic construct containing sequence encoding Cre recombinase under the control of the mouse platelet derived growth factor receptor, beta polypeptide promoter and a SV40 polyadenylation site sequence was injected into fertilized CBA x C57BL/6J mouse eggs. Founder line 9 was established. Cre recombinase expression is detected mural cells (vascular smooth muscle cells and pericytes) of the skin, intestine, kidney, lung, and the CNS vascular plexus as well as other organs. |
