| Primary Identifier | MGI:4360082 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
| Attribute String | Recombinase | Gene | Tg(Nodal-cre)16Hmd |
| Strain of Origin | C57BL/6 | Is Recombinase | true |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| molecularNote | This transgene comprises two tandem copies of a 0.7-kb DNA fragment containing the node-specific enhancer (NDE) of the Nodal gene, 1.2 kb of 5' flanking DNA from the Nodal locus containing the promoter, and the Cre recombinase coding sequence. Beta-galactosidase expression in progeny of mice with this transgene and animals bearing a lacZ Cre reporter transgene is first detected by X-Gal staining in the region of the posterior node of 2-somite-stage embryos; this activity becomes stronger as the embryos develop. |
