molecularNote | The L1L2_Pgk_P cassette was inserted at position 50001214 of Chromosome X upstream of the critical exon(s) (Build GRCm39). The cassette is composed of an FRT site followed by lacZ sequence and a loxP site. This first loxP site is followed by a neomycin resistance gene under the control of the PGK promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exon(s) at position 50001970. The critical exon 4 is thus flanked by loxP sites. A "conditional ready" (floxed) allele can be created by flp recombinase expression in mice carrying this allele. Subsequent cre expression results in a knockout mouse. 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 4.
