Mating System Homozygote x Homozygote (Female x Male) 05-SEP-08 Species laboratory mouse Generation N12+F4 (30-DEC-08) Donating Investigator M. Luisa Iruela-Arispe, University of California, Los Angeles Description
Hemizygotes are viable, fertile, normal in size, and do not display any gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. In the differentiated endothelium transgene expression is observed as early as E7.5 and progresses to almost full penetrance by E14.5. In adult mice, uniform cre expression is observed in the endothelium of developing and quiescent vessels of all organs examined, as well as within a subset of hematopoietic cells. When bred with any mouse containing a loxP-flanked sequence of interest, Cre-mediated recombination will result in deletion of the flanked genome. These mice may be useful in studies of the cardiovascular system, including angiogenesis, and endothelial and hematopoietic cell lineages.Development
A recombinant vector was designed to place Cre recombinase cDNA downstream from a 2.5-kb fragment of the VE-Cadherin (Cdh5) mouse promoter. This construct was microinjected into FVB/N fertilized oocytes. A selected founder line ("VEN7-CRE") was established and then backcrossed to C57BL/6 for 12 generations.

| Strain of Origin | FVB/N | ||
| Site of Expression | Embryonic and adult expression in endothelium of developing and quiescent vessels of all organs examined, as well as within a subset of hematopoietic cells. | ||
| Expressed Gene | cre, cre recombinase, bacteriophage P1 | ||
| Cre recombinase is an enzyme derived from the bacteriophage P1 that specifically recognizes loxP sites. Cre has been shown to effectively mediate the excision of DNA located between loxP sites. After the excision event, the DNA ends recombine leaving a single loxP site in place of the intervening sequence. | |||
| Promoter | Cdh5, cadherin 5, mouse, laboratory | ||
| Driver Note | Cdh5 | ||
| Molecular Note | The cadherin 5 promoter was used to drive expression of cre recombinase in the adult epithelium. Three lines were created. [MGI Ref ID J:106155] | ||
