molecularNote | The targeting vector was designed with (from 5' to 3') an FRT3 site, two copies of chicken beta-globin HS4 insulator element (to reduce reporter gene expression in absence of transactivators), a modified Tet response element (TRE or tetO), a floxed-STOP cassette (stop codons in all three reading frames linked to synthetic pA-hGHpA-PGKpA), the voltage-sensitive fluorescent protein Butterfly 1.2 coding sequence (details below), a WPRE sequence (to enhance mRNA stability), a BGH polyA, two copies of chicken beta-globin HS4 insulator element, an AttB site, a PGK-5 hygro cassette, an RNA spice donor and a FRT5 site. Embryonic stem cells, previously targeted with FRT5-AttB-Hygro2 cassette-AttP-SV40pA-splice acceptor-PGKpA-FRT3 in the same locus, were re-transfected with the targeting vector and Flp recombinase vector. Mutant mice were bred with Gt(ROSA)26Sortm3(phiC31*)Sor mice to remove to remove the AttB/AttP-flanked PGK-hygro-SV40pA cassette and replace it with the recombined AttB/AttP site (AttL). The Ai78D allele is therefore TIGRE-frt3-Ins-TRE-LSL-VSFPB1.2-WPRE-bGHpA-Ins-AttL. |
