B6.129-Optntm1.1Htse/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07251096

Common Name: Optnflox
Exon 1 of the mouse Optn gene is flanked by loxP sites in these Optnflox conditional mutant mice. Cre recombinase-mediated excision of the floxed region results in a knock-out allele useful in a range of research areas including glaucoma, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Paget's Disease, as well as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases.

Molecular Note
A loxP site was introduced 5' of exon 1 and an FRT neomycin-FRT loxP cassette was placed 3' of exon 1. FLP-mediated recombination removed the neomycin cassette.
