Primary Identifier | MGI:5703921 | Allele Type | Transgenic |
Attribute String | Reporter | Gene | Tg(Cck-EGFP)2Mirn |
Strain of Origin | C57BL/6NHsd | Is Recombinase | false |
Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | Cre-mediated recombination removed the human globin mini-gene from Tg(Cck-EGFP/RNAi:Gad1)2Mirn resulting in fluorescent reporter expression in the cell sub-populations that normally express the Cck gene; including GABAergic interneuron basket cells (primarily synapse onto cell soma) or double bouquet cells (target dendrites in the amygdala, cortex, hippocampus, hypothalamus and thalamus). |
