B6;129S6-Gt(ROSA)26Sortm8(CAG-mCherry, -EGFP)Dym/J

Cat. No.: CEMM-07250736

Common Name: RC::FrePe dual-recombinase responsive fluorescent
The RC::FrePe dual-recombinase responsive fluorescent allele has a frt-flanked STOP and loxP-flanked mCherry::STOP all preventing transcription of eGFP. FLP recombinase results in mCherry fluorescence, and further exposure to Cre recombinase results in eGFP fluorescence in the overlapping populations. The RC::FrePe allele and its derivatives are useful for fluorescent labeling of cells/tissues in embryonic or adult mice. These mice allow intersectional genetic fate mapping of different cell subpopulations defined by the overlap of two gene expression domains.

Site of Expression
After removal of the first STOP cassettes by FLP recombination, mCherry fluorescence is expected in Flp-expressing serotonergic neurons. Further exposure to Cre recombinase removes the floxed-tdTomato::STOP, resulting in eGFP fluorescence.

Molecular Note
The CAG promoter drives ubiquitous expression of an FRT disrupted red mCherry and loxP-disrupted EGFP.

Breeding Considerations
Mice homozygous for the RC::FrePe allele are viable and fertile with no reported gross physical or behavioral abnormalities. When maintaining a live colony, heterozygous mice may be bred together, to wildtype mice from the colony or to C57BL/6J inbred animals. Alternatively, homozygous mice may be bred together.
