| molecularNote | Cre-mediated excision of the parental Rnf216tm1a(EUCOMM)Wtsi allele resulted in the removal of the promoter-driven neomycin selection cassette and critical exons 4 and 5 leaving behind the inserted lacZ reporter sequence. Western blot analysis confirmed the absence of protein expression in the brain and testes of homozygous mutant mice.
