B6;129S-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm1(CAG-COX8A/Dendra2)Dcc/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250398

Common Name: PhAM floxed
PhAMfloxed (photo-activatable mitochondria) mice conditionally express a mitochondrial-specific version of Dendra2 green/red photoswitchable monomeric fluorescent protein. Cre excision of a floxed stop segment permits expression of green fluorescence in mitochondria. Exposure of green fluorescent mitochondria to 405 nm laser light irreversibly switches green fluorescence to red, enabling measurements of mitochondrial fusion and transport.

Site of Expression
Cre excision of the stop signal results in expression of Dendra2, a green-to-red irreversibly photo-switchable fluorescent protein, in the mitochondria of Cre-expressing tissues.

Molecular Note
Dendra2 (a green to red irreversibly photoswitchable monomeric fluorescent protein derived from octocoral Dendronephthya sp.) fused to the mitochondrial targeting signal of subunit VIII of cytochrome c oxidase (mito-Dendra2), bovine growth hormone (bGH) polyadenylation signal, and an FRT flanked neomycin cassette were introduced to Gt(ROSA)26Sor downstream of a CAG (CMV-beta-actin) promoter and loxP-flanked termination signal.
