B6;129-Casktm1Sud/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250048

Common Name: CASK floxed
These floxed mutant mice possess loxP sites flanking the first coding exon of the Cask gene. This strain may be useful for generating conditional mutations in applications related to synaptic function.

Molecular Note
The first coding exon of the Cask gene is flanked by loxP sites and a neomycin cassette is inserted into the intron adjacent to the floxed intron. The resulting allele is a hypermorph with Cask expression deCreased by ~66%.

Breeding Considerations
When maintained as a live colony, heterozygous females are crossed with homozygous males or heterozygotes are intercrossed. Homozygous females are viable but fail to thrive.
