Generation DefinitionsDonating Investigator David D. Ginty, Johns Hopkins University Description
These mice possess loxP sites on either side of exon 2 of the targeted gene. Mice that are homozygous for this allele are viable, fertile, normal in size and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. When used in conjunction with a Cre recombinase-expressing strain, this strain is useful in generating tissue-specific mutants of the floxed allele.Development
A FRT site flanked targeting vector containing neomycin resistance and thymidine kinase genes was utilized in the construction of this mutant. loxP sites were placed flanking exon 2 and the neomycin resistance/ thymidine kinase genes. This construct was electroporated into 129.1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. Correctly targeted ES cells were injected into C57BL/6 blastocysts. The resulting chimeric mice were crossed to C57BL/6 mice and then subsequently crossed to an FLP recombinase expressing strain (B6;SJL-Tg(ACTFLPe)9205Dym/J Stock No. 003800) to remove the selection vector. Mice carrying the floxed allele were backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 10 generations.
