| Primary Identifier | MGI:6720833 | Allele Type | Targeted |
| Attribute String | Inducible, Recombinase | Gene | Lhx2 |
| Transmission | Germline | Strain of Origin | (C57BL/6 x 129S4/SvJae)F1 |
| Induced With | tamoxifen | Is Recombinase | true |
| Is Wild Type | false |
| molecularNote | The allele was generated by inserting a 2A-CreER expression cassette in-frame before the STOP codon of the Lhx2 gene. The targeting vectors generated using BAC clones from the RPCI-23&24 library were electroporated into a 129SVj/B6 hybrid ES cell line (v6.5). The Resulting ES cell clones were used for tetraploid complementation to obtain male heterozygous mice. The neo selection cassette was excised by crossing to FlpE strain mice. |
