molecularNote | The L1L2_Bact_P cassette was inserted at position 20313996 of Chromosome 14 upstream of the critical exons 2 and 3 (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 human beta-actin promoter, SV40 polyA, a second FRT site and a second loxP site. A third loxP site is inserted downstream of the targeted exons 2-3 at position 20315779. The critical exons 2-3 are thus flanked by loxP sites. A "conditional ready" (exons 2-3 floxed) allele was created by flp recombinase expression which removed the lacZ and neomycin resistance gene.
