B6;129-Igs1tm1(CAG-Bgeo, -tdTomato/TEVP, -SV2B/GFP)Nat/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250184

A targeted insertion placed 2 kb 5' of the Igs1 (intergenic site, formerly Ubb) gene provides constitutive expression of a nuclear-localized beta-galactosidase/neomycin resistance protein reporter (NLS-beta-geo) in the absence of Cre-mediated recombination. Following Cre-mediated recombination, the NLS-beta-geo coding region is excised and a downstream open reading frame is expressed. When Cre-mediated recombination occurs in neurons, the amino terminal piece (tdTomato/TEVP, a 6xmyc epitope, a TEVP cleavage site) labels all axon and dendrites, and the carboxy-terminal portion (SV2B, GFP, 3xHA epitope) labels presynaptic structures. This reporter can be activated by cre recombinase in any cell in the body at any time in development.

Site of Expression
Cre excision of a nuclear-localized beta-galactosidase/neomycin resistance protein reporter (NLS-beta-geo) results in self-cleavage of the construct. Expression of the amino-terminal, containing tdTomato, and the carboxy-terminal portion, containing EGFP, are reported in Cre-expressing tissues.
