Primary Identifier | MGI:7565419 | Allele Type | Targeted |
Attribute String | Humanized sequence, Hypomorph, Inserted expressed sequence | Gene | Htra1 |
Transmission | Germline | Strain of Origin | C57BL/6 |
Is Recombinase | false | Is Wild Type | false |
molecularNote | The targeting vector is designed to insert a human ubiquitin C promoter, a loxP-flanked STOP cassette, a human ARMS2 cDNA tagged with a Flag epitope, and an FRT-flanked neomycin cassette upstream of the Htra1 promoter. Mice do not have the ARMS2 gene. Flp-mediated recombination removed the neo cassette. Cre-mediated recombination removed the STOP cassette. The expression of endogenous Htra1 in the cortex is decreased by 22% in early adult mice. |
