| molecularNote | A targeting vector, constructed from a BAC clone containing the Slc32a1 (Vgat) gene, was utilized to insert an internal ribosomal entry site followed by the cre recombinase sequence into the Slc32a1 locus just downstream of the endogenous stop codon. Cre is expressed from the Slc32a1 gene promoter. Immunohistochemistry on brain and Western blot analysis shows decreased expression of SLC32A1 protein in homozygotes. |
