| molecularNote | The targeting cassette obtained from KOMP is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by neomycin resistance gene under the control of the human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of exon 4. The critical exon 4 is thus flanked by loxP sites. A null/knockout allele was created by cre recombinase expression in mice carrying the tm1a allele to remove the neo selection cassette and loxP-flanked critical exon(s).
